In just minutes, a brand new event will begin in the 2017 Playground Poker Fall Classic. The nickname for the event is “The Crazy $80” and it’s a $70 + $10 NL Hold’em event – the first daytime-only multi-day event we’ve ever hosted at Playground Poker. The event features 4 Day 1s – one a day from today until Thursday – following which everyone who qualifies will return for Day 2, which will play to a conclusion.
With a $20,000 prize pool guarantee, this unlimited re-entry tournament is a considerable upgrade on the usual afternoon tournaments, and with several chances available to qualify for Day 2, it won’t be surprising to see several players qualify multiple times with the goal of taking the best stack to the final day. This tournament is a little different than others we’ve hosted in this format in that instead of playing through a set number of levels, Day 1s will play until 10% of the field remains.
Cards will be in the air in about 15 minutes – good luck to everyone playing the event!
