The Heartland Poker Tour will be returning soon to Southern Indiana. The poker series is headed to Hollywood Casino Lawrenceburg for a 12-day, 13-event series in early April.
Located just a 20-minute drive west from Cincinnati, Hollywood Casino Lawrenceburg proved a popular stop for the HPT last year when the tour made its first visit.
A year ago Gregory Wood topped a 555-entry field in the Main Event to win a $119,101 first-place prize. That field created a prize pool of $532,800 which more than doubled the tournament’s $250,000 guarantee.

This year’s schedule includes a variety of preliminary events with buy-ins ranging from $200 to $300. Among the no-limit hold’em tournaments are multiple deep-stacked events, a couple of bounty events, two seniors events, and a tag team event.
Tournament series features much more than just hold’em
There are also non-hold’em events, including a $300 pot-limit Omaha/Big O event and $200 7-game mixed event (H.O.R.S.E. plus PLO and NLHE). Satellites and other side events will run as well throughout the series.
The series culminates with an $1,100 buy-in Main Event which this time features a larger $300,000 guaranteed prize pool. The tournament features three Day Ones from Friday through Sunday, Apr. 10-12. Each Day One flight will play down to 11% of the field, and everyone who makes the final Day Two on Monday, Apr. 13 will cash.
The Main Event final table will be streamed live on Twitch.tv/HPTpoker, with an estimated start time of 5 p.m. ET. In addition to the first prize, the Main Event winner will also receive a package worth $3,500 to enter the year-end Season XVI HPT Championship Event.

Hollywood Casino Lawrenceburg will host the first stop of Season 4 for Penn National Gaming’s Hollywood Poker Open (HPO) Regional Tournament Series. The 11-day series will run from Thursday, Nov. 12 through Sunday, Nov. 22 with tournaments daily for poker players of all skill levels. Early on, the buy-ins range from $70 to $300 while the final weekend features a $1,115 buy-in Regional Championship.
“The HPO brings a first-class tournament series with great structures and reasonable buy-ins at designated Regional Penn properties across the country,” said ambassador Chris Moneymaker. “I’m very proud to be back as a spokesperson and I can’t wait to sit down and play in event #1 in Indiana.”
Event #1 kicks off with a $235 buy-in No Limit Hold’em Feature Event at 3:15pm Nov. 12. The winners of each Feature Event (11) will receive an HPO Regional Trophy as well as points toward a Regional Leaderboard competition.
Both the Regional Main Event and the Regional Leaderboard promotion winner will receive a seat into the Season 4 Championship Event, June 24, 2016 at the M Resort in Las Vegas. Previous seasons have seen the championship prize pool average close to $1.5 million dollars.
“The Penn Gaming properties (22 in all) have sent hundreds of players to the HPO Las Vegas Championship annually throughout the past three seasons, and intend to do that again this year,” said Tournament Director Bill Bruce. “Going forward we are also going to make a big push to give away seats to each Regional Main Event with promotions leading up to the event. I expect the $1,115 buy-in Regional Main Events to have a large number of players who win their seat via pre-promotions and giveaways.”
“We couldn’t be happier that we’re the first stop of the tournament again this year,” said Brad Hinson. “At Lawrenceburg, we have been running promotions giving away Regional Main Event seats for some time now and we’ll also be adding seats to several of the prelims. Our patrons like the opportunity to play the HPO branded events as well as play along side Chris Moneymaker in the tournaments and live side games.”
