Final Event Kicks Off
Today marks the last day of the 2024 Maryland State Poker Championship. There are two more events that have yet to crown a winner, including the Main Event, which gets underway at 2:15 p.m. with just five players remaining. Pokerstars ambassador Parker Talbot remains in contention with the second largest stack. Updates from that tournament can be found here.
Meanwhile, the last event, the $400 Tag Team Switch, kicked off at 11:15 a.m. this morning and will play down to a winner today. Unlike a traditional tag team event, both players from a team receive separate stacks that they play on their own. Those stacks will only be combined should both players make the final table. Any payouts are, as in any other team poker event, divided equally between the two participants. A recap of that tournament will be available later tonight.
