WSOPC #13: $10,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em
Dia 1 Iniciado
At 6 p.m. GMT, one of two $10,000 buy-in tournaments of the GGPoker WSOP Winter Online Circuit festival will take place with the WSOPC #13: $10,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em on the schedule to kick off. This tournament is popular with many players to show off their heads-up skills and lots of exciting action will be coming up today.
With a cap of 128 players and $1,000,000 guaranteed for the prize pool, it remains to be seen if the field will fill. There are currently almost 80 entries with many familiar names already registered like Felipe Ramos, Danny Tang, Daniel Dvoress, Michiel Van Elsacker, Patrick Tardif, Koray Turker, and many more players.
Players will get 100,000 chips in their starting stacks which is worth 200 big blinds at the start of their respective heads-up matches. The stacks and blind levels will reset at each start of the new match and levels will last 12 minutes each. Players will play a maximum of 5 rounds today as play will end when there are two matches left for the semi-finals.
Play will then resume on Saturday, January 9, with hole cards coverage on GGPoker.TV.
David Peters beat Michael Addamo earlier this year for $360,480 for a WSOP bracelet while Fedor Holz defeated Brunno Botteon heads-up for $1,070,250 in the Event #79: $25,000 Heads Up No Limit Hold'em [People's Choice Event, Most Popular] which had a slightly higher buy-in. But who will take this title and the WSOP Circuit Ring that comes with it?
PokerNews will be there for all of it, so make sure to follow along with us all the way.
With 94 players in the field, the tournament has just kicked off.
