Harvest Poker Classic, Casino Regina

Saskatchewan, admittedly, is pretty boring. As a matter of fact, pretty much nothing in Saskatchewan is fun. That was before we found the Harvest Poker Classic which is located in the quaint capital city of Regina. Currently, tournaments take place on Tuesday and Wednesday although their schedule’s subject to change without notice. After viewing their past tournaments, most jackpots average C$150,000. Average buy-in for regular weekly tournaments is between C$50 and C$100. The casino averages roughly 2,000,000 visitors annually, and the locals seem to love the Texas Hold ‘em tournaments. The actual harvest poker classic takes place between November 4 and November 8 annually, so there’s plenty of time to practice.

Canadian Poker Tour

Perhaps the most widely televised poker tournament we found has partnered with the famous Edgewater Casino in Vancouver, British Columbia. Because the poker tournament actually keeps a point tally running all summer long, jackpots are considerably higher. Current point leader Matthew Lapossie has raked C$633,000 as of July 1, although several players are catching up quickly. The tour is currently in Calgary, Alberta, although players who wish to join the tour can simply go to the Canadian Poker Tour website to find out its current location.

Thomas Taylor has won the Summer Super Stack Main Event for the second year in a row!

The Super Stack tournament series are organized and hosted by Deerfoot Inn & Casino in Calgary, with a Winter, Spring, and Summer variant each year. The Summer Super Stack just wrapped up with Thomas Taylor emerging as the victor for the second year in a row.

For the win, Taylor picked up first-place money of $60,000, adding to the $79,000 he won in the same tournament last year. If you’re not already impressed, he also finished runner-up in the Spring Super Stack Main Event this year for another $21,250.

A number of the PokerNews Canada team named Thomas Taylor as a player to watch going into this summer’s World Series of Poker, predicting a big breakout year. While he had a reasonably good summer, it wasn’t quite the spotlight-stealer we’d thought it might be. But this recent success assures us that he’s still one to keep your eyes on.

The final table also included runner-up Toby Wu ($41,000), Kyle Hartree (third — $30,000), Sean Giesbrecht (fourth — $22,000), Ryan Comely (fifth — $17,000), James Keichinger (sixth — $13,000), Jimmy Gill (seventh — $10,000), Kirk Nilson (eighth — $7,900), and Curtis Vigoren (ninth — $6,600).

The Summer Super Stack was a 12-event, 13-day tournament series that included unique formats like turbos, bounties, pot-limit Omaha, a team event, a seniors event, a ladies event, and a tournament that changed levels based on eliminations, keeping the average stack at around 25 big blinds throughout the entire tournament.

This was the first major series under the new poker room manager, Ron Campbell, who we spoke with before the series began. Notably, he had removed the prize pool guarantees and drastically reduced the player-of-the-series prizing for this series.
