Welcome to Event #7 – $25,000 No Limit Hold’em
Welcome to the ARIA Resort & Casino and the PokerGO Studio for the 2019 U.S. Poker Open and Event #7 – $25,000 No-Limit Hold’em.
In 2018, the U.S. Poker Open was a new event added to the string of Poker Central high roller tournaments and the eight events on the schedule saw the likes of Justin Bonomo, Mike Gorodinsky, Stephen Chidwick, Ben Tollerene, Benjamin Pollak, David Peters, and Keith Tilston capture victories over the course of 11 days. Last year, Stephen Chidwick captured the first leg of his back-to-back victories in this event when he defeated Keith Tilston heads-up to win the $374,000 first-place prize.
Unlike in 2018 where the U.S. Poker Open Champion was crowned based on which player accumulated the most earnings throughout the series, the 2019 Champion will be decided using the High Roller of the Year points system. The player that accumulates the most High Roller of the Year points during the series will be crowned the U.S. Poker Open Champion and be awarded a $100,000 first-place prize.

Defending U.S. Poker Open Champion Stephen Chidwick sits on 340 points while Jordan Cristos is third with 240 points. For Chidwick, he is in prime position to take back the lead as he is the chip leader heading into the Event #6 final table. Chidwick will have the likes of Anthony Zinno, Sean Rafael, Cary Katz, Ben Lamb, and Tom Marchese.
Watch the final table of that event live and exclusively on PokerGO starting at 5 p.m. EST or follow along with the coverage on PokerCentral.com.
Today will see the seventh event of the U.S. Poker Open with Event #7 – $25,000 No-Limit Hold’em. Players will begin with 125,000 in starting chips and be playing 30-minute levels with play ending once the final table is down to six players. There are no tournament fees for players who register by 2 p.m. and each player is allowed two re-entries through the first nine levels (ending approximately 7 p.m. local time). There is also a 30-second shot clock in play for the duration of the tournament and each player will receive three 60-second time banks each day.
The cards are expected to be in the air for Event #7 of the 2019 U.S. Poker Open at 5 p.m. (EST) with the Poker Central Live Reporting team providing continuous live updates until just six players remain.
