Season 3 is kicking off this week in grand fashion! Running Aces Harness Park in Forest Lake, MN – just 20 minutes north of Minneapolis – will be hosting Season 3, Event 1 of the BLUFF Mid-States Poker Tour.

Satellites and Qualifiers will be held Wednesday, Feb. 15th through Saturday, Feb. 18th. The $1,000+$100 Main Event will include multiple Day 1 flights on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 17th & 18th. Players who survive Day 1A or Day 1B will combine to play Day 2 on Sunday, Feb. 19th.

The prize pool is estimated to reach $300,000!

Viewers around the world will be able to watch the Final Table action unfold Sunday evening (approx. 7:00 – 8:00pm CST) on www.bluffmagazine.com using state-of-the-art RFID technology.

What is RFID technology?

On the surface it looks like a regular poker table. But hidden inside the table is a system of hi-tech RFID electronics that tracks the movement of playing cards, and superimposes that information on to a live video feed. The cutting edge technology, identifies exactly what cards have been dealt and replaces any need for hole cameras.

The final table will be streamed on a 15-minute delay (same as the ESPN broadcast of the WSOP) at www.bluffmagazine.com, showing viewers the hole cards and the flop, long with the percentage chance of winning the hand and “out” cards when heads up in a hand.
