The Triple Crown Championship
The Top 32 Points Leaders
Sunday, May 18 at Noon
The Triple Crown Championship will consist of 45-minute rounds split into 15 minute segments of the following games: Omaha HiLo 8 or Better; 7-Card Stud; Texas Hold’em
$250 of each buy-in goes towards the tournament payout with $50 applied to the Championship. The top 32 in each tournament earn championship points at a rate of 32 for first, 31 for second, and so on down to 1 point for 32nd place. The top 32 point-earners from all three events combined qualify for the Triple Crown Championship – no additional entry or buy-in required.
30 Minute Rounds
Players start with 3,000 Tournament Chips
(Bonus Event): players start with 2,000 in chips)
ROUND LIMIT
1 50-100
2 100-200
3 150-300
10 Minute Break
4 300-600
5 400-800
6 600-1200
10 Minute Break
7 1000-2000
8 2000-4000
9 4000-8000
My initial thought is its good for no one. I think it MAY be worthwhile if and only if you are going to play all 3 and you're decent in all 3 games. I think I'm going to skip it and just play in the $100 NLHE "bonus event" (but $100+$20 is pretty sad too). I also don't think their choice of running the limit hold'em event last was very smart.
