WSOPC Event #11: $1,700 MAIN EVENT

 
Reigning Choctaw Circuit Main Event Champion Harvey Castro

The moment we have all been waiting for! Today, Flight A of the Choctaw WSOP Circuit Main Event will begin at 11 a.m. local time. Recent events like The Garnatuan and Seniors Event have been smashing guarantees, making local poker players excited to see if the Circuit Main Event surpasses the $1,000,000 advertised prizepool. While tournament entrants can anticipate a lucrative event, to “cash in” on a payday, they will first have to bag for Day 2.

Although his brother was spotted playing earlier in the series, defending Choctaw Main Event champion Harvey Castro has still yet to be seen on the tournament floor. While we still do not yet know if Castro will arrive to defend his title, we can look forward to many Choctaw regulars and visitors competing for the series’ top prize.

For players who plan on entering Flight A of the Choctaw Circuit Main Event, here is what you need to know:

$1,000,000 guaranteed prizepool

40,000 starting stack

40-minute blinds for the first 15 levels, 60-minute levels thereafter

One re-entry per flight

Registration open until the start of level 13

Minimum 15-minute break approximately every 2 hours of play

Flight B is on Friday, November 3rd starting at 11 a.m.

Flight C is on Saturday, November 4th starting at 11 a.m.
