Daytona Beach Main Event Begins Today


The $1,100 Main Event at Daytona Beach Racing and Card Club (@DBKCandPR) kicks off this afternoon at 2:00pm. We'll provide up to the minute coverage all weekend long right here at HPTupdates.com.

Heartland Poker Tour has awarded nearly $5 million in prize pool money here in Daytona Beach since the tour first visited back in 2011. Last year's Main Event drew well over 400 entries with first place taking home just shy of a six-figure payday.

Though today marks the start of the televised Main Event, action has been steady all week long here at the Central Florida property with a number of prelim events having already played to completion. The opening $250 Monster Stack event saw 285 total entries with local man John McConnell (pictured) taking the top spot for $13,574.

Erik Schmidt, Saied Zamiri, & Wilmer Chavira were among the other side event winners. Click HERE to take a look at full results for the series so far.

This weekend's Main Event in Daytona offers three starting flights. Today and tomorrow cards will go in the air at 2:10pm. The final flight on Saturday will begin at 12:10pm. This is a unlimited re-entry tournament with a big blind ante format. Late registration is available until the start of Level 10 each day.

Players who advance from their respective flights will combine for Day 2 action on Sunday and the final nine will return to the felt Monday for the filming and livestream in front of a live studio audience.
