Yeah, in 2016 HORSE was 116, and PLO was 126, which was the first time it allowed re-entry. In 2015 HORSE was 101 and PLO was 106. Both years it was the same day as this year: Sunday PLO 5PM (on the day of the re-entry restart) and Monday HORSE 5PM (on the day of the noon Monster Stack) and the same buyin level ($580).
On one hand its hard for the odd games to compete versus something like the monster stack, on the other hand the odds of getting more players is higher when there is something else drawing players to the casino that day. Probably comes out in a wash? I know Michelle amongst others post a lot about horse, so I'll just say this for reference: As someone who loves PLO but not horse, I can say that if HORSE was a stand alone day the way the Omaha 8 event is, I probably wouldn't show up that day to play and just take the day off. But if I bust the Monster, I'll inevitably hop in it since I'm already at the casino. So this scheduling works on someone like me at least.

Days 1A-1D combine for day 2 on Sunday at Noon. Likely play down to the FT or close to it, which should reconvene Monday at 2PM.
I just noticed there are 2 seniors events - 10AM on Sunday of both weekends. This is new for Hammond, but is it something that's been done at another stop before? I can't say I recall it happening before.
