|
The Card Player Poker Tour is returning to Ocean’s 11 Casino in beautiful Oceanside, California for the eighth time to bring you another running of the San Diego Classic, a $250 buy-in main event that features six starting flights spread out over three days (Jan. 24-26). The tournament has a $150,000 estimated prize pool, but the past two most recent runnings of this tournament each surpassed $220,000 in prize money.
Players can enter any one of the six starting flight for $250 and re-enter while registration is open. This event also allows players another unique option: they can take advantage of the Quantum Tournament structure of this event and buy in for $1,500 on Sunday, Jan. 27 for day 2 and receive 100,000 in tournament chips. Players can also pay a $30 optional staff add-on and receive an additional 20,000 in chips. A single day 2 re-entry will be available to players up until the end of the second level that day.
