ALL THE Aces

LIVE & LAIRY

The ‘Dusk Till Dawn 8-Max Series’ kicks off in Nottingham, today, and runs through to 22nd July offering up five tournaments including a £100,000 GTD Main Event. You can take a crack at any (or all) of the three starting flights for that for £250 a pop. Alternatively, you can head to the Capital to tackle ‘The London Deepstack’ at the Poker Room at the Grosvenor Victoria Casino (£150 +£20).

TRIPLE DRAW MORE

PokerStars ‘MICROMILLIONS’ is underway until

29th July offering up millions of dollars to be won for tiny buy-ins. It’s a packed schedule, but one that leaps out today is Event #26, the $3.30 FL Triple Draw 2-7, which offers up a $7,500 GTD prize pool. Remember, with three draws and a fixed-limit betting structure, you can expect to face much tighter hands at showdown, so the general rule is to aim at making at least an 8-or-better.

BIG O

Ooh, Event #28, the $3.30 5-Card PLO8 [6-Max] looks juicy too. There’s a sweet $15,000 guaranteed to make the high variance tourney worthwhile if you survive to the end! Of course, in poker as in sex, there’s no Big O without lots of ups and downs, so strap in, and get ready to party. But make sure you “avoid drawing to second/second in multi-way pots,” warns

Red Chip Poker.
