Canadian Open Set To Smash Attendance Mark
The Championship features 13 events over 11 days at three Calgary casino venues with an estimated $3.5 million up for grabs.
It is expected to be the largest series of poker tournaments in Canadian history.
The series will feature the traditional $5,000 heads-up main event, which has attracted top pros and celebrities in the past.
Already confirmed are 2010 World Series of Poker bracelet winner Gavin Smith, 2009 WSOP double bracelet winner Greg "FBT" Mueller and 2010 November Niner Matt Jarvis.
This year the schedule will also feature the Canadian Poker Tour's Ladies National Championship
"I am very pleased to have seen the Canadian Open grow since our first event in 2006 where we hosted a single event with only 64 players," said HeadsUp CEO and promoter Kelly B. Kellner.
"This year we expect over 2,000 entries over the entire series."
