Master Classics of Poker Kicks Off Nov. 15

Master Classics of Poker

The Master Classics of Poker (MCOP) is one of the longest-running live poker tournament series. Last year, the festival doubled its event schedule to include more than two dozen events to celebrate its 25th anniversary.

This year's schedule is equally as big for its 26th edition taking place at the Holland Casino Amsterdam from Nov. 15-25.

The highlight of the poker festival is, of course, the MCOP �4,300 Main Event. Last year, local Dutch player Hakim Zoufri won the event for �275,608 after outlasting a field of 356 entrants.

That marked the fourth time this decade the trophy was kept on home soil as David Boyaciyan (2011 - �382,200), Noah Boeken (2013 - �306,821) and Ruben Visser (2014 - �306,821) also notched recent victories in the Main Event.

Main Event

This year's Main Event should prove to be equally exciting. The tournament is a deep-stacked affair with players starting out with 30,000 in chips. Blind levels increase every 60 minutes during the first two opening flights on Nov. 17 and Nov. 21 and every 20 minutes during a turbo-flight on Nov. 21.

Players bagging chips will combine for Day 2 on Nov. 22 and the tournament will play through Nov. 24 until a winner is crowned. Starting on Day 3, blinds go up to 75 minutes, providing players a deeper structure.

The schedule features many satellites to some of the bigger events including six �330 qualifiers to the Main Event.

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be on hand to cover both the Main Event and the MCOP �25,500 Super High Roller on Nov. 18-19, which is expected to attract some of the biggest names in poker.
