A change from the popular No Limit Hold 'em format.On Saturday night, June 6th, at 10:20PM ET Ultimate Bet, the site endorsed by Annie Duke and Phil Hellmuth, will be hosting a Limit HORSE tournament. The starting stack is 1500 chips, the entry fee is $15 + $1.50, there are no rebuys or add-ons, and the blinds will be increased every 12 minutes. Since it is a 'Limit' tournament format the starting blinds will be a little higher than usual for the site at 20/40 and a small ante will kick in after about half an hour.
This tournament is a deviation from the seemingly unending No Limit Texas Hold 'em tourneys as five different poker variants will be played. Texas Hold 'em is just one format and the others are Omaha eight or better, Razz, Seven card Stud, and Seven card stud Eight or better. To win in HORSE tournaments you usually have to be well rounded in poker but you also need to play fewer hands when the current game is one that you are weak in.
