The 2020 Online World Series of Poker rolls on today with Event #8: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Freezeout, which kicks off at 3 p.m. PDT.
The tournament is a freezeout, meaning re-entries and rebuys are not allowed. Late registration will be available for three hours and forty-five minutes, until 6:45 p.m. PDT. Players will start with 20,000 in chips and play 15-minute levels.
This is a single day event meaning the entire tournament will be played out online and the winner will take home a WSOP Gold Bracelet.
A host of players have already registered, including Ryan "flipflip" Lenaghan, Peter "EasyPeasy" Hengaskul, and Bryan "Mug15" Elliot, to name a few.
