Running Jan. 6-24, this inaugural visit to the Choctaw Casino is packed with a total of 51 events, including 10 ring events. The three-day $1,600 no-limit hold’em main event begins on Jan. 22, and it’s expected to see a nice turnout. Players participating in the main event will start with 20,000 in chips.
