WHAT: (SUBECT TO CHANGE)

Multi-Life (4 Games, 2.5k chips per game) + Main Event (30K+bonuses and Bounties). Free 30k insurance rebuy until the end of round 4 (I really hate to see people pay that much money and leave after the 1st or 2nd hand, which has happened twice before). There is no add-on. After the 4th round the rebuy chips are dead.

No Paid Rebuys. No bonus chips from Pre-paying or Multi-Life games are to be added with that free rebuy.

Play 4 rounds of 12 minutes. 25/25 - 25/50 - 50/100 - 100/200.

Play 4 games (Using 4 different sets of poker chips, cards, and buttons - Pharaoh, Horseshoe Cincinnati, Nevada Jacks and PCF tournament). 3 guest sets can be used to sub out Horseshoe and Nevada Jacks. (Chris, Mike, Tony, Paolo, Berny, or anyone I missed)

If you get knocked out, just wait until the 2nd / 3rd / 4th game to begin.

If you do not play any of the Multi-life, or if you get knocked out you will receive the same amount of bonus chips as the lowest chip count. Example, 3 players have zeros as their bonus. Pedro Pokerplayer has the lowest count after all games are added up, and has 500 as his bonus. All 4 people will have 500 added to their Main Event at 4pm total.

Add up chips from all 4 games and add that total to your Main Tournament total.

The maximum carry-over to the main event is 30,000 chips.

As of 2023 these are now C.H.O.P. Tournaments. We will play 4 games. New for 2026. Each Mini Game will be one specific game.

Game 1: Crazy Pineapple

All 4 Rounds - Crazy Pineapple - Dealt 3 cards - discard AFTER the flop.

Game 2: No Limit Hold'em
All 4 Rounds - NLHE

Game 3: Pot Limit Omaha

All 4 Rounds - PLO

Game 4: Pineapple

All 4 Rounds - Pineapple - Dealt 3 cards - discard BEFORE the flop.

You don't have to play each round if it’s one you neither like, nor know how to play.

You will just be blinded until that 12 minute round is up.
