The January running of the 2020 Card Player Poker Tour Ocean’s 11 San Diego Classic kicked off on Thursday, January 23. This marks the eleventh time that the CPPT has made it’s way to beautiful Oceanside, California to for this $250 buy-in main event, with more than 8,200 entries made and more than $2.1 million in prize money awarded in the prior ten events.

The tournament features a $150,000 estimated prize pool this year but has previously drawn as many as 949 entries to create a prize pool worth nearly a quarter of a million dollars. The most recent running of this tournament drew 926 entries back in July of 2019. Brazilian poker pro Mateus Lessa emerged victorious in the end, earning $43,120 as the champion.

Thursday saw the first two starting flights of the six on offer for this event held, beginning at 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. local time. Flight 1A attracted a total of 114 entries, while flight 1B added another 115. With 229 total entries so far the prize pool has already grown to $45,800 with four starting flights still available to play.
