Starting October 6 on CoinPoker, the third unofficial world cash game championship will begin, this time determining the best in PLO with a prize pool of $55,000.
Games will be played at PLO2.5/5 and PLO10/20 tables, with no rake charged. The minimum buy-in is 100BB.
Point System:
- 1 EVBB at PLO500 (2.5/5): 1 point
- 1 EVBB at PLO2,000 (10/20 with ante): 2.5 points
The top 5 players receive prizes, with the winner determined by the highest EV (minimum 20,000 hands), taking the main prize—a $15,000 Rolex watch.
| Rank | Prize |
| 1 | $15,000 (Rolex watch) |
| 2 | $5,000 |
| 3 | $4,000 |
| 4 | $3,000 |
| 5 | $2,000 |
Every Sunday (17:00 GMT) a VIP game with ambassadors will take place, where two poker room representatives are joined by 5 players from the previous week:
- Player with the most interesting hand (determined by social media vote)
- Player with the largest loss
- Player with the highest EV shortfall
- Player with the most hands played
- Player with the highest % VPIP (from 2,000 hands)
The qualifying period ends at 23:59 GMT every Friday. Players at the VIP table receive $1,000 each, and these hands do not count toward the main leaderboard.
At all championship tables, the winning hand will be automatically displayed.
