USPO #01 began on Thursday attracting 68 entries. The final table of six will play out this afternoon. You can follow the action via the PokerNews live reporting blog or head over to PokerGo to catch the action live on a 30-minute delay.
The same structure is set for the PLO event today. Players will play down to an official final table of six and return on Saturday for its conclusion. Aria and Poker Central are enticing players to pre-register for the USPO events offering a rake-free buy-in if they arrive at the tournament desk before the event kicks off. All late-entries and re-entries will be subject to the fee.
Blind levels will last 30-minutes and players will start with 125,000 in tournament chips. There will be a 10-minute break every three levels and two re-entries are permitted. Late registration will close following the break after Level 9.
Where to Watch the Action
For those fans looking forward to watching their favorite player in action, look no further than Poker Central itself. All of the final tables will be live-streamed with a 30-minute delay on PokerGO. There has recently been some feedback about the lack of mixed-game coverage on TV. However, Poker Central is willing to test the idea of how well the mixed-game format translates to the live stream and fans can now look forward to watching all of the action.
