The HPO Columbus will take place at the Hollywood Casino in Columbus, Ohio from May 14-25 and feature 32 events, 10 of which are HPO-sanctioned 'featured' events. In addition, 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event champ and HPO ambassador Chris Moneymaker will be in attendance, and the PokerNews Live Reporting team will be on hand to capture all the Regional Main Event action in our live blog.
'HPO Columbus is the last regional stop of the season,' said PokerNewsEditor in Chief Donnie Peters. 'With a chance to qualify for the Championship Event in Las Vegas, a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool on the Regional Main Event, and the possibility of playing alongside 2003 WSOP Main Event champion Chris Moneymaker, what else could you ask for?'

Back then the Main Event was an $1,800 buy-in, so with Season 3's more affordable $1,115 price tag there's a good chance the field will grow even bigger.
