We are rolling into the second week of the Pinktober Poker Open schedule and the PPO Championship is right around the corner. With only a few days before the big game kicks off, we have a nice warmup starting with Flight A of Event 3 at 1 pm. It has a $600 buy-in with a $50,000 guarantee and two starting flights.

The structure is deep and slow and plenty of play for the buy-in.

Players start with 30K in their stacks and all levels last 40 minutes from beginning to end. Late registration and re-entries are available until 7:45 pm so plenty of time to wrap up work and get to the Poker Room.

Flight A will play down to the last 12.5% of the field and survivors will return on Wednesday at 1 pm.
