DrTyore

Might be a silly question, but the games in order are....

Holdem
Omaha hi/lo
Razz
Stud
Stud eight or better (aka hi lo)

Correct?

Renumbered the levels, we'll keep the 200/400 opening level in and see how it goes. If it goes quickly, that's more people for a cash game. ;)

Correct on the order!

Decided to increase starting stack to 40k to make sure there's more opportunity for early play. That starts everyone off with 100 big bets for the first level.

The Poker Clock and World Clock are on different times zones - all good 141 am is the new 245 am - thanks for hosting Rob #goodtimes #rushing #dragging #whiplash

For reference, with a 40k starting stack, 14 players, and the blind schedule above, the game was still going on at 1:40am. Results, coming soon, but in the end, DrTyore and Thiyagu chopped in level 17 and they dealt a single hand for the winner. If I were to run this again, I'd drop the starting stack back to 25k and remove the first level. (I'd also strongly consider doing a button ante for Stud games) Yes, there was more play earlier, but it went far too late.

Aside from that, I had a blast playing limit games live! It's a tournament that won't happen often, but deserves a spot in the rotation. I think next season we'll try a mixed Big Bet tournament!

Damn it!! Wish I had spotted this earlier!!

The results are in. After a long tournament, DrTyore and Thyiagu reached heads up, played for a while, then split the remaining prize pool, and dealt a single hand to determine a winner. Our 2023 HORSE Champion is DrTyore!
