Giddy-Up and Get Ready for the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E Championship
Welcome back to PokerNews, the official media partner of the 2024 World Series of Poker and home of live updates from all bracelet events.
Today sees the start of Event #45: $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship here at Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas.
This tournament requires a mastery of five different poker variants��Limit Hold��em; Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better; Razz; Seven Card Stud; and Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better.
This four-day event gets underway at 2 p.m. local time, with late registration open until the start of Day 2. There will be 15-minute breaks every two hours of play. There is no reentry in this event.
The starting stack is 60,000 chips, with the plan for Day 1 to play nine levels. For the surviving players or late registrants, Day 2 resumes at 1 p.m. and closes after another eight levels of play.
The reigning champion is Mike Gorodinsky, who defeated Alex Livingston in a very short heads-up match to cap his triumph over the field of 185 players that built a $1,720,500 prize pool.
The victory awarded Gorodinsky a third WSOP bracelet, along with the $422,747 up top.
��I had kind of a rocky start to my summer," Gorodinsky told PokerNews last year. "My plan actually was if I didn��t cash or go far in this tournament, I was going to fly home for a week and a half to recharge and spend some time with my wife. So, this run was kind of like an unexpected, really cool way to wrap up an otherwise long, tough month.��
