The winner walks away with a seat to the $500,000 Guaranteed HPO Championship at the M Resort in Las Vegas this June.
Located right in the heart of Ohio, minutes from downtown Columbus, Hollywood Casino’s usual 36 poker tables will be even more bustling than normal with all of the participants playing in the Regional Tournament. Hundreds of players throughout the region and beyond are expected to go head-to-head in over 30 events taking place in 11 action-packed days.
