Bellagio Festa Al Lago: The main event will begin this October 11
The annual poker tournament of Bellagio casino, the Festa Al Lago, began on September 30. This great poker festival has 15 events. As inaugural tournament, there before there was the No Limit Hold'em of $ 330 buy-in. And the main event is scheduled to begin on October 11. This year, organizers made a major change. Indeed, they decided to reduce a half the buy-in of the tournaments. They hope to bring this time more participants in the field and record a more interesting prizepool. On the other hand, if the champion of last year, Randal Flowers, pocketed $ 831,500 by defeating the 335 players, the winner of this edition open for $ 5,180 can expect a prize as important. However, it is possible to earn a spot for the main event by taking part in qualifying satellite tournaments held in the Fontana poker room of Bellagio.
So far, 10 events were played. Apart from the inaugural tournament, there were also two tournaments including the No Limit Hold'em of $ 540 and the Omaha 8/0B. The event 11 which is the No Limit Hold'em of $ 1,000 + $ 80 buy-in will begin on October 7, 2011 in conjunction with the No Limit Hold'em of $ 500 + $ 40. On October 8, two similar events to those planned to take place on October 7 will be in the program. The fifteenth tournament organized as part of the Bellagio Festa Al Lago will be held on October 9. This is the senior event offered for $ 540 buy-in.
