Tuesday, January 24th: The Return Of The "Monster Stack," And "Tuesday $10K"

Monday saw the return to the "daily tournament" schedule for the first time since the first day of the month.  The morning tournament ($80 No Limit Hold'em w/ $10 Bounties) attracted a total of (45) entries, and ended up with a prize pool of $2,350.  There would be no deals made at that final table though, as Richard Yaspan (Glen Cove, NY) bested Daniel Genachte heads-up to win $614.  The day's evening event ($130 No Limit Hold'em $2,000 Guarantee) attracted a total of (18) entries, with an official prize pool of $2,000.  The tournament ended in a heads-up chop between Marcello Mancarella (Daytona Beach, FL) and Frank Katana (Canada), with each earning $800.
