Real Poker, Not a Shove Fest
The HSOP brings Calgary's poker community together for a three-day championship featuring two Day 1 flights — Friday and Saturday — played simultaneously across two houses.
With deep starting stacks and a true tournament structure, the HSOP delivers real poker and the largest prize pool we've ever offered. It captures the feel of a full tournament series: competitive, exciting, and unmistakably ours.
