Welcome to Lake Tahoe!
The World Series of Poker Circuit rumbles on today with another $1,675 buy-in Main Event. This one coming to you from Harvey's Lake Tahoe, on the South Shore of the second-deepest lake in the United States, in the beautiful mountain town of Stateline, Nevada.
Known for it's great skiing and beautiful mountain and lake scenery, Lake Tahoe also has a history of great poker. In 2008, Michael Binger won the WSOP-C Main Event here for $181,379, and in 2007, Chris Ferguson won the title and pocketed $203,649.
Last year, Bryan Schultz bested a field of 327 players en route to a $111,812 payday and his first career WSOP-C gold ring. Schultz already has one cash at this year's circuit stop in Lake Tahoe, finishing 20th in a $365 event for $589.
This is a re-entry event, and players who bust on Day 1a will be allowed to play again during the Day 1b flight. Both flights will take place today, and the entire field will then combine for Day 2 tomorrow.
The cards will be in the air in about 90 minutes. We hope you check back for all of your live, up-to-the-minute updates of this and every WSOP-C Main Event right here on PokerNews.com.
