The Card Player Poker Tour has arrived in Texas! Texas hold’em will be the game of choice, of course, for the $500+$80 main event, hosted at the Post Oak Poker Club in Houston.
The Post Oak Poker Club in Houston, which was the first licensed poker club in the state, will be running the second annual Lone Star State Poker Championship through the weekend, wrapping up a six-event series.
Check out the results from the preliminary events here.
The main event kicks off with the first of two starting flights on Friday, Aug.3. Players will have another crack at advancing with flight B on Saturday, Aug. 4, and the tournament wraps up on Sunday. Players can also take part in a Last Chance tournament for just $120 on Sunday.
Just like the prelims, the main event winner will walk away with a customized gold ring. The championship rings are crowned with the Texas state gem, blue topaz, cut in a Lone Star shape and featuring black onyx and rubies.
