Goldstrike
I’m back in Tunica for the World Poker Open at Goldstrike. Just a few years ago this was a major stop on the WPT. Unfortunately they dropped it from the schedule about a year ago. Despite the main event no longer being a televised $10k event the WPO still attracts a reasonable amount of players.
They’ve got some good PLO action here, both tournaments and cash games. You’d be lucky to find to a 5/5 PLO game in Vegas (during non WSOP times), but it’s spread far more commonly here in the south, especially during the World Poker Open.
So far I haven’t done too well in the cash games, but have made a couple final tables online – go figure. Tomorrow’s the $1k PLO w/rebuys and then on Sunday the $5k NLH main event. I’m feeling really good about how I’m playing and am very driven at the moment. I like my chances to do well in these small field soft events.
