NLH/PLO Mix on the Side for Opening Day
Event: Event #2: $600 NLH/PLO MIx ($515 + $85) Date: Jan 8, 2025, 3 PM Blinds: 30 Minutes Starting Stack: 25k Late Entry: 10 Levels (~8:45 PM) Day 1 Ends: One-Day Event The side event on opening day is the NLH/PLO Mix. This is traditionally the only mixed game event featured at a Calgary WSOP-C, but this year there is also a HORSE game added later in the series for a double shot of mixed game action this time around.
The game kicks off at 3 PM with entries open for 10 levels or until about 8:45 PM. Players sit down with 25k in chips for 30-minute levels throughout the game, so this could be a late one. This is a one-day event, so the winner will be decided before they end for the night.
My focus early in the day will be on Event #1 until it finishes, but I expect this one to go well into the early morning hours of Thursday, so I expect I’ll catch the endgame of this one after the Big 30 Stack ring is awarded.
