This marks the sixth time the Ante Up World Championship will be held at Thunder Valley. I look forward to hearing from the players this year about playing to the money bubble on Day 1.”

“Players have shared across-the-board compliments about finishing the event on Sunday. “This year, the championship will play to the money on Day 1,” said Thunder Valley’s Ben Erwin. The surviving players from both flights will then return Sunday at Noon to play down to a winner. What’s more, the PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be on hand to offer live updates from the tournament, which offers two starting flights at 11 a.m. The winner of that tournament will not only walk away with a lot of cash but will also appear on the cover of Ante Up Magazine’s September issue. This weekend, the stop will culminate with a $1,650 buy-in, $500,000 guaranteed Main Event.

Since early July, the Ante Up Poker Tour has been at California’s Thunder Valley Casino Resort for both the Ante Up NorCal Classic and Ante Up World Championship.
