WPT JACKSONVILLE OPEN STARTS TODAY
The next WPT main event of Season XI takes place in Jacksonville, Florida from Friday. The WPT Jacksonville Open is a $3,500 tournament with a $500,000 guarantee, the main event is double re-entry meaning that if a player busts Day 1A then can re-enter on the same day should they wish and also enter Day 1B should they bust both bullets on Day 1A.
This is the tours second stop off in Jacksonville in Season XI, back in November 2012 Noah Schwartz defeated a field of 477 to win $402,972 and finally claim his first WPT title. It was the American’s fourth WPT final table and after finishing positions of 4th, 3rd and 4th respectively in his previous visits to the final table it was fourth time lucky for him. Despite his win and two subsequent WPT cashes this season Schwartz is only in ninth place in the Player of the Year race some 1,200 points behind Matt Salsberg.
There will be a live stream of the main event final table, which is slated to get underway at 2pm (EST) on Tuesday 30th April. Live updates, as always, can be found at http://www.worldpokertour.com/Live_Updates/Post.aspx |
