This Will Be a Crazy Game of Poker!

"10-Game? What is this, I don't even ...?!"
"10-Game? What is this, I don't even ...?!"

Just when you thought this game couldn't get crazier, the 2011 World Series of Poker have taken the concept to a whole new level with the introduction of the $2,500 10-Game Mixed Event!

There's no question that mixed games are the true test of any all-round poker player and naturally, we'll see quite a few big names in today's field, but perhaps the biggest challenge in this new tournament (for both players and dealers) will be the Korean lowball variant known as Badugi, which has gained popularity over the years online and is now being spread for the very first time here at the WSOP.

How does it work? Simple! Like in Hold'em or Omaha, a small and big blind is posted before four cards are dealt face down to each player. The game is played as a fixed-limit format with four betting rounds - one after the initial deal, then one after each subsequent draw. Aces always count and the absolute nuts in this game is {a-}{2-}{3-}{4-} rainbow. No suited cards, no pairs and certainly no trips, flushes or quads!

Here's the full list of games that are being spread in this event today - fear not, for there are plenty of old favorites!

  • No Limit Hold'em
  • Seven-Card Razz
  • Limit Hold'em
  • Badugi
  • Seven-Card Stud
  • 2-7 Draw Lowball (No Limit)
  • Omaha Hi-Low Split-8 or Better
  • Pot-Limit Omaha
  • 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball (Limit)
  • Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low Split-8 or Better

We're not far off from getting started, so stay with us right here at PokerNews for all the live updates from 5pm PST (GMT -7). Bring it on!
