One of the most-anticipated tournaments on the schedule is the $1,100 buy-in No-Limit Hold’em event on October 18. The two-day tournament is sure to draw a big turnout given there will be a $160 super satellite the day before on October 17.
The affordable buy-ins will complement the previously announced high roller schedule being called the “2021 Aria October High Roller Series.” There will be $10,000 High Roller events on October 1st, 13th, and 28th, all of which will count on the PokerGO Tour.
Similarly, there will be a “2021 ARIA November High Roller Series” that will be comprised of 11 tournaments at the $10,000 price point and a $25,000 high roller.
