Updates from Event #6

 

Today's new gold ring event is Event #7 - $365 No-Limit Hold'em Monster Stack. Monster stack tournaments are relatively new to the Circuit, but so far have been a hit. The key difference between a monster stack event and a standard $365 NLHE event is that players start with 20,000 chips instead of the normal 10,000 chip starting stack. Cards will be in the air at 11.a.m. with late registration open until the start of Level 9. Details on the tournament can be found below
