Level 7: 800/1,600 Limits
Registration has closed for the HORSE event with the unofficial number of 32 entrants showing on the board. We’ll have official numbers after accounting is complete but it looks like there will be a healthy bonus on top for players in the game.
Robert Campbell is one new face we haven’t seen so far this series. While he plays the No Limit Hold’em games, he seems to have a specialty.
Campbell has over $800,000 in career earnings including twelve victories, all of which came in one form of Omaha/8 except one. He won the $240 Pot Limit Omaha/8 last year during the 2014 Coco Poker Open and he earned a WSOP Circuit ring in 2009 in the limit version.
They are schedule to go on a dinner break shortly after 7pm and we’ll get an idea who’s out front for the title.

Level 2: 150/300 Limits
The non-No Limit Hold’em events will never draw as big as their cousins but we have a nice field of 20 players at the start of the second level. Closing in on the halfway point of hitting the $20,000 guarantee with plenty of time to run that up.
Local favorite Luis Santoni is back in action two days after making the Event 2 PLO final table. He finished fifth in that game and looking to move up.

Level 1: 100/200 Limits
There are enough non-Hold’em and mix events on the 2015 Coco Poker Open schedule to keep everyone happy. We already wrapped up a Pot Limit Omaha tournament and this afternoon puts H.O.R.S.E. out there for those who like to master different variations of the game.
They’ll rotate through Limit Hold’em, Limit Omaha/8, Razz, Stud, and Stud/8 to test their skills. Players sit down to 10,000 stacks and play 40-minutes levels throughout the tournament. Late registration is available until the end of Level 6, approximately 4:15pm, with unlimited re-entries available during that time.
It will be tough to dust off those stacks in that amount of time, but the option is there.
Dealers are stationed and players are beginning to take their seats for the newest event on the schedule. Cards will in the air shortly.
