We are so excited to be launching our reporting services with the Mixed Games Festival XII. We love everything about these events. Robbie Strazynski and CardPlayer Lifestyle have been friends of ours for a long time and we love to support them. We are also avid fans of mixed games and Robbie has done a great job increasing the visibility of mixed games and introducing new players to games beyond holdem. And we are enthusiastic fans of the poker room at Resorts World. In fact, one of our founders, Chris ‘Fox’ Wallace, won a WSOP HORSE championship and plays in mixed and semi-private games at Resorts World multiple nights a week. He claims it as his favorite room in Vegas.
All those things add up to an incredible opportunity. We have the knowledge, we have the experience, and we have the computing power, to cover mixed games like no one ever has. Video, hole cards, strategy, we can talk about the game at an expert level and we have Chronicle, our proprietary software, trained on mixed games to create graphics for us so that we can present hands from any game type with hole cards and boards.
We will be covering the OE event at Resorts World on Monday November 17th starting at noon. Late registration is open until 4:25 pm for this one, and with thirty-minute levels you’ll still have a reasonable stack if you show up late. The dealers at Resorts World handle mixed games as well as any dealers we’ve ever seen because the biggest mixed games in town are hosted in the private rooms here.
We will have a photographer from poker.photos on site shooting still photos and video, and our reporters from pokerreporting.com will be covering hand updates and results. Our goal is always to make the players feel like stars and create a memorable experience for them. We’ll start showcasing this event as soon as it starts and provide coverage all the way through. You can also find coverage on our social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
The CSOP awards three trophies, provided by Right Touch Engravers, at our events. Two of these are awarded when the players return from the first break. The first is the chip lead trophy for whoever manages to mass the most chips before the end of the rebuy period. The second is the rebuy trophy, for whoever donated the most money rebuying themselves, and others, into the event.
