MECHANICS

GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW:

  • Short Deck is played just like NLH except a 36-card deck is used (2’s to 5’s removed) instead of a full deck.
  • In Short Deck, a Flush beats a Full House, and the lowest possible Straight is A 6 7 8 9.
  • Single Antes will be posted by all players (there are no blinds).
  • The Button player will post double the ante amount.

BOUNTIES:

  • Bounty value is NT$2,000.
  • Players who share a pot where a Bounty is won will split the Bounty.

LEVELS: 

  • Levels will be 10 minutes for the duration of the tournament until a winner is declared.

RE-ENTRY:

  • Unlimited re-entry is allowed before the close of registration.

PAYOUTS:

  • Approximately one in seven entries (15%) will be in the money.

SHOT CLOCKS & TIME BANKS:

  • Shot Clocks will be implemented throughout the tournament.
  • Players receive 3 time-extension chips worth 10 seconds each at the time of taking their seat, and another 3 more at the start of the Final Table.

PACE OF PLAY

  • Players are required to make decisions within a reasonable timeframe.
  • Players who are found to intentionally abuse time, deliberately stall, or purposely slow down the game’s progression will be subjected to a 5-second shot clock for all subsequent decision-making.
  • In all tournaments, including shot clock tournaments, we retain the right to limit the time any player has to make a decision.

SEATING & RE-DRAWS:

  • Play will be 6-handed for the duration of the tournament with a Final Table of 7 players.
  • Seating re-draws will be conducted prior to the start of the Final Table.

#19: Bounty Short Deck

Posted 23rd February 2025 by Ace Kingsley

♠️ Bounty Hunting in Short Deck Style! ♠️

The #19 Bounty Short Deck tournament at the Players Series Taiwan Championship saw 41 players take on the dynamic and fast-paced poker variant. In the end, it was Sunjoon Choi from South Korea who claimed victory and NT$30,000! 🏆💰

Short Deck poker, also known as 6+ Hold’em, shakes things up by removing the 2s, 3s, 4s, and 5s from the deck, making for bigger hands and more aggressive action! 🚀

Congratulations to the champion for mastering the chaos! 🎉🔥
