Saturday, November 5th: Big Things In Store On Breeders' Cup Day

It would be an understatement to say that we are upon one of the "biggest" days of the month.  While those who enjoy horse racing have their eyes focused on Santa Anita Park for the Breeders' Cup, we are focused on the Isle Poker Room for a $5,000 Guaranteed No Limit Hold'em Freeroll (10:00am), $1,000 "High Hands" (2:00pm-10:00pm), and an evening tournament with a $5,000 guarantee ($75 No limit Hold'em - 7:00pm).

The action kicks off at 10:00am with the $5,000 guaranteed "freeroll," a $0.00 buy-in tournament offering the top (20) players a share of the pool.  There is a $10 "dealer appreciation option, as well as $20 re-buys and a one time $20 add-on.  The "freeroll" will bring heaps of players to the tournament area, but you'll be hard pressed to see the room as busy as it's going to be around 1:30pm as...

...Players prepare for the "richest" high hand promotion of the month, as $1,000 will be given away every qualifying half-hour from 2:00-10:00pm.  Between the promotion and the Breeders' Cup, the room will be full with players ready for the "PM" tournament.  The cards get in the air for the $75 No Limit Hold'em tournament ($5,000 Guarantee), with results posted in our "weekly recap."
