The 2013 L.A. Poker Classic tournament series kicked off today, January 15th, with the first of 68 events. The Commerce Casino in Los Angeles, California is the largest poker room in the world, making it the perfect home for one of the biggest tournament festivals on the circuit.
This year’s LAPC will feature a variety of games, including no-limit hold’em, eight-game mix, H.O.R.S.E., pot-limit Omaha, Omaha eight-or-better and all of the seven-card Stud variants, as well as unique tournament formats such as ‘all-in or fold’, turbo events, mixed-max, shootouts and more. Open-faced chinese poker will also be making its tournament debut at the LAPC for event 52, featuring a $1,600 buy-in.
When it comes to buy-ins, there is a tournament to fit every bankroll, whether players are looking for an affordable $150 no-limit hold’em event or the $25,000 buy-in high roller.
The centerpiece of this celebrated series is the $10,000 buy-in World Poker Tour L.A. Poker Classic main event, which will take place from Feb. 23rd through the 28th. Some of poker’s biggest names have won this event in previous years, including Gus Hansen, Michael Mizrachi, Antonio Esfandiari and Phil Ivey.
In 2012 Sean Jazayeri topped a field of 549 to capture the title and the $1,370,240 first-place prize, defeating a final table that featured top poker pros David “Doc” Sands, Jason Somerville, Noah Schwartz and Daniel Kelly.
