The 2024 Winter Poker Open at Champions Club Texas in Houston continues today with Day 1g and Day 1h (seventh and eighth of eleven starting flights) of Event #4: $400- $300,000 GTD Mystery Bounty!
Day 1g of the $400 buy-in event starts at high noon local time while Day 1h that will kick off at 5:00 p.m. Both of these flights will have unlimited re-entries and registration will be open until the start of Level 9 (approximately 4:30 p.m. for 1g; 9:30 p.m. for 1h).
Yesterday’s Day 1f was topped by Caesar Hinojosa who put 573,000 into a bag, which means out of the six completed starting flights, it is still Derek Normand who holds the top stack as he bagged the chip lead in Day 1e with 691,000.
Players will start with 30,000 chips, and levels will be 30 minutes in length, with a 15-minute break every four levels. Play continues in each opening flight until just 12% of the field remains, with those players in the money and advancing to Day 2, at which point the bounties will come into play.
The two-day event culminates with a live-streamed final table on Monday, February 12th once all survivors from the eleven opening flights have been thinned to nine remaining contenders. Those opening flight returnees will come back to the Champions Club poker room at noon on Monday to continue their chase for a big payday and to pull some big bounties!
Make sure to stay tuned for the next few days as PokerNews will have you covered for this event until a champion is crowned on Monday, so stay with us for all the action!
