2009 WSOP Event 15 - $5,000 No Limit Hold Em

The 15th event at the 2009 World Series of Poker is the No Limit Hold’em tourney that all poker enthusiasts are awaiting. With a buy-in of $5000, it is not necessarily the cheapest tournament, but it is reasonable enough to tempt the more serious players. This event has been around for a while now, and in 2005 T.J Cloutier won $657,100 in this tournament. A large number of participants are expected, and it will definitely be one of the most watched events of the tournaments. For non-participants, it is possible to watch the live action on many television channels, and there are even a few sites that will offer live streaming.

As was mentioned earlier, the 40th Annual 2009 WSOP Event#15 No Limit Hold’em game has a $5000 buy-in that should be tempting enough for most professionals. The event will begin on the 6th of June and last for three days till the 8th of June. The games have the regular format with 60 minute games and a break of 20 minutes after every two games. In the past, players started with $5000 in tournament chips, but it is to be seen what the organizers will decide on this year. There will also be a small percentage that goes towards tournament staff and entry fees.
