It just feels like yesterday when PokerStars annouced their 2010 SCOOP schedule. I plan on playing most of the Lower Tier buy-ins and some of the Medier Tier buy-ins (like the $109, $162 and $215s).
Whats great about a Series like this is that you get a great amount of variations of poker games besides the standard everyday Hold'em tournaments. Two of the different tournaments that I'm excited about is Event #4 FL Badugi and Event #29 8-Game!
8-Game is becoming a very popular game in the live and online world. It's become so popular that the WSOP has changed their $50K HORSE event to a $50K 8-Game event which is expected to be televised with an all NLHE Final Table.

I first heard of Badugi while attending the WSOP in 2006 where I saw it being played in the cash game area with the likes of Johnny Chan and Tim Phan. The game is believed to have originated in Korea and now becoming every popular in card rooms around the world, especially in the LA Area (eg Commerce Casino).

With SCOOP starting in less than 5 days away. I wish you the best of luck at the table, just not against me :)
