Welcome to Day 1 of Event #10: €2,000 8-Game Mix
The 2023 World Series of Poker Europe at King’s Resort in Rozvadov continues today with Event #10: €2,000 8-Game Mix, which is the only mixed-game tournament of the this year’s series. Last year, Thomer Pidun bested a 102-entry field and defeated two-time bracelet winner Oleksii Kovalchuk heads-up to claim his first bracelet and the €49,245 first-place prize.
As is often the case, mixed-game events tend to attract plenty of accomplished notables looking to showcase their skills beyond just Hold’em. Among those who cashed in last year’s field include Yuval Bronshtein, Shaun Deeb, Anson Tsang, and Allen Kessler, to name a few.
Eight-Game Mix features a rotation of games including No-Limit Hold’em, Seven Card Stud, Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better, Razz, Pot-Limit Omaha, Limit Hold’em, Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better, and 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw. Each game is cycled after every orbit and each table will be six-handed.
