We are at Hollywood Casino in St. Louis this weekend, providing live coverage of the $500,000 Guaranteed Heartland Poker Tour $1,650 Main Event.
There’s three starting flights – Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with Day 2 Sunday and a Livestream final table Monday afternoon.
A 444-entry field created a prize pool of nearly $650,000 for the inaugural HPT Main Event at this location last April – when the guarantee was $300,000. Bill Byrnes earned just shy of $150k for the win here earlier in the year, holding off Keith Heine FTW.
Follow along with our coverage at HPTupdates.com, our 5th season of being the updates team for HPT main events nationwide.
