Almost $700K Guaranteed to be won During the Wynn Signature Series
The Wynn Las Vegas is the place to be in late November and early December because the $695,000 guaranteed Wynn Signature Series heads to town.
Featuring 11 different events, the Wynn Signature Series runs from Nov. 28 to Dec. 10 and sees a variety of formats scheduled. These include a pair of senior’s tournaments, two survivor (bounty) events, pot-limit Omaha, and a Short Deck Ante Only tournament.
It is a senior, over 50-years-old, event that kicks off the series. This $550 buy-in event has 30-minute levels, sees everyone sit down with 18,000 chips, and play for a share of a guaranteed $50,000.
Two big guaranteed no-limit hold’em events are sure to capture the imagination of the Las Vegas poker community. The first of these runs from Nov. 29 to Dec. 2, costs $600 to buy into and boasts of a $250,000 guaranteed prize pool.
This event has three starting flights, all of which are re-entry, with players grinding 40-minute levels from a 20,000 starting stack.
The other big hold’em tournament is a $150,000 guaranteed affair running from Dec. 6-8. It too features a 20,000 starting stack and 40-minute levels for a $600 buy-in, although this event only has two starting flights to choose from.
