Following a short delay to allow the satellite to complete, the Day 1a of the €550 H.O.R.S.E.S Mixed Games Main Event is now in running. They will play 12 x 30 minute levels on each of the three starting days.
Mixed games specialist Scott Kenyon managed to bag a seat in the satellite, despite it being run using a Hold’em format. Also in the field at this early stage of the day is Malta’s mixed games ambassador Antoine Degiorgio, who is here for the entire 10 days and will be basking in mixed games heaven, hoping to take a trophy home with him.
German player Nicolas Bokowski is also playing. He finished 3rd in the €2,000 WSOPE Mixed Games Bracelet event here at Kings Casino in 2021. He had a great series then, cashing six times and making three final tables.
One of the most experienced players in today’s field is Ukrainian Alexander Dovzhenko, who has over $2.7m in lifetime cashes, with results on TheHendomMob database going back as fas as 2001. His best live cash was in 2009, when he was runner up in EPT Kiev, for €220,000.
With results dating back even further than Dovzhenko, Italian Bruno Stefanelli is a mixed game specialist. In 2023 he made the final table of the €2,000 Pot Limit Omaha bracelet event at WSOPE.
