Before the Main Event begins, several $600 mixed game tournaments will run, including Omaha 8, HORSE, 2-7 Triple Draw, and Pot-Limit Omaha. The highlight of the series is the $1,000,000 Main Event, starting on October 2 with three flights and a $1,700 buy-in. So far, 1,256 players have entered, with nine already securing spots in the top 10.
