Welcome To The Bar Poker Open!

Welcome to the Golden Nugget here in Las Vegas, NV. where we hope to crown an Eastern Poker Tour player as the champ!

We have close to 150 Eastern Poker Tour players playing in the event!

For the next 4 days, our photographer and blogger, Christopher Sevick is here and will report what is going on with Eastern Poker Tour players on the tables.

Not only do we have Bar Poker Open National Championship, the Golden Nugget is hosting the Grand Poker Series where they have a number of great tournaments to play in while you are here. https://www.goldennugget.com/contentassets/3d9de35eaa9649b985c5382f12449bc2/gps-schedule.pdf 

On Monday, all players playing in Day 1A (Flight 1 and 2) will start with 20,000 in chips. Levels will be 30 minutes long. Flights will end when the field has reached 5% rounded up, or at the Tournament Director’s discretion.

Tuesday is Day 1B. If you played in Day 1A, you may be allowed to play this day even if you have already “found a bag” for Day 2. If you bag on this day as well, your better chip stack will be your starting stack for Day 2.

Day 2 (Wednesday) will play until the Final Table is reached.

The Final Table will be on Thursday at 2pm (5pm EST) and will be livestreamed on Facebook and YouTube with Evan Myers and guests.

When you see our blogger, please let him know how big your chip stack is or a great story of a hand that you were in. He will be posting photos on Facebook, so please “like” and “share” those with you family and friends back home who could not make it out here!

We hope to have an all Eastern Poker Tour Final Table!
