    Coming up next: Mixed NLHE – PLO!

    In a few moments, Event 5 of the Pokerstars Canada Cup will begin here at Playground Poker Club, and it will be the first time we host a Mixed No Limit Hold’em and Pot Limit Omaha event as part of a series. The buy-in for this tournament is of $300 + $30, and the blinds will go up every 20 minutes, alternating at each level between the two games.

    Late registration will close after the break following level 5, or roughly 9:50pm. With under 10 minutes left before the start of the tournament, we have 28 players registered, but we can expect that number to climb considerably.

    Best of luck!
