Lucky Hearts Poker Open Returns in 2022; Will Brian Altman Continue Dominance?

The Lucky Hearts Poker Open will return in 2022 come January, and the World Poker Tour (WPT) is on board again for a $2 million guaranteed Main Tour event, a tournament twice won by defending champ Brian Altman.

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino will host the popular series, which includes 33 total events, highlighted by the WPT's $3,500 buy-in tournament from January 21-26. The series begins at the Hollywood, Florida casino January 13 and concludes January 25.

In January 2020, Altman became the first player in history to win the same WPT event twice.
