Wynn Classic

The Wynn Classic is back again for a month of poker action at the Encore Poker Room from Feb. 19 thorugh March 17.

The schedule features 23 events with combined guarantees of almost $2.8 million. This is a sizeable increase from the last time this festival ran in the autumn when it boasted 16 events with $1.8 million in guarantees.

Championship Event

The highlight of the series will be the three-day Wynn Classic Championship Event with a $1,600 buy-in and a $1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool. The massive guarantee is double that during the last Championship Event won by Steve Sung for $170,550.

The event features three starting days with players starting off with 30,000 in chips and competing in 60-minute blind levels on March 14-16. As is the case with all events on the schedule, players will have a chance to build a big stack with unlimited reentries permitted throughout the late-registration period.

Other Big Events

In addition to the Championship Event, the schedule features a handful of other multi-day tournaments. An event early in the schedule on Feb. 25-26 features two opening days with a $600 buy-in and a $200,000 guarantee.

Two events with three opening days featuring a $600 buy-in and a $250,000 take place on Feb. 28 to March 2 and again on March 7-9. Another three opening day event with a $400 buy-in and a $150,000 guarantee takes place on March 11-13.

Another big event that will likely draw some of the biggest names in poker is the $3,200 buy-in No Limit Hold'em event with a $200,000 guarantee on March 16.

The schedule also features two Senior (50+) events and plenty of daily No Limit Hold'em tournaments with guarantees as high as $100,000.
