Welcome to Day 1 of Event #9: $1200 No-Limit Hold'em Freezeout as the 2023 Potomac Winter Poker Open enters the home stretch with just four days of tournaments remaining. Today's two-day tournament is a new event for the Potomac Winter Poker Open and features a $50K guarantee. The "freezeout" element means there will be no re-buys or re-entering; once a player enters and busts — that's it.
The last $50K guarantee here at the Potomac Winter Poker Open was won by Vivian Lundgren late last night in Event #7: $400 No-Limit Hold'em after besting a 176-player field. Today's event marks the third $50k guarantee of the series thus far.
Players will begin with 50,000 in tournament chips with blinds starting at 100/100 and a 100 big-blind ante. Levels will last 40 minutes each throughout the event. Late registration will be available until the beginning of level 13 and Day 1 will end at the completion of level 18. Day 2 will resume on Friday, February 3 at 2 p.m.
