2025 WSOPC Calgary #2 Event #7: TORSE ($695 + $105)
| Date: | Oct 5, 3 PM |
| Blinds: | 40 Minutes |
| Starting Stack: | 30k |
| Late Entry: | 9 Levels (~9:45 PM) |
| Day 1 Ends: | End of Level 12 (~Midnight) |
The 3rd game on Sunday marks the first-ever running of a TORSE game in Alberta. TORSE is a modernized version of the HORSE rotation, but instead of starting off with limit hold ’em, the opening round is triple draw deuce to seven. Otherwise, the rest of the HORSE rotation stays the same.
Day 1 action kicks off at 3 PM on Sunday, and there are 9 levels of entry. That should put the last chance to enter at about 9:45 PM, and they’ll only play three more levels until they bag up for Day 2 at the end of Level 12, about midnight.
Players start with 30k in chips, and play 40-minute levels throughout the game.
There was no TORSE game in January, but the more traditional HORSE game got 113 entries for prizes of $78,535. KKPoker rep Chris Alcindor took it down over Zach Nicholls.
It’s very likely I won’t catch any of the action for this one, at least on Sunday’s Day 1. I’ll be focusing on the Day 2 play on Monday as my main game, but Sunday has two other games in line before Day 1 of this one, so I’ll probably only get some numbers and the final stacks in for this game.
