The 2011 Festa al Lago Classic main event begins Tuesday afternoon at the Bellagio. The $5,000 buy-in championship should feature a larger turnout than last year, after the buy-in was cut in half.
Last year, Randal Flowers defeated 335 players in the $10,000 main event to take home a $831,500 first-place prize. Flowers also made some history along the way, becoming the youngest player ever to hold two World Poker Tour titles at just 21 years of age.
Stay tuned to Card Player to see who will walk away with some highly-contested Player of the Year points from the prestigious Bellagio annual series.
