Monday, April 10th: Allenspach Bookends The Week, "Big Game Bounty Hunting" This Evening

ICYMI: Last week's "daily tournament" schedule wrapped up yesterday afternoon with a $150 No Limit Hold'em ($10,000 GTD) event.  The tournament, which began at 12:00pm, attracted a field size of (82) entries.  The final nine players would make the money, with a min-cash worth $250, and $3,400 for the win.  After four final table eliminations (Raul Hernandez, Hugh Hardy, Mike Allen, and Tim Kegel), the remaining five players agreed to a deal:
  1. Frederick Allenspach (Plantation, FL) $2,622
  2. Ramon Gonzalez (Miami, FL) $2,195

  4. Kevin Scarola (West Palm Beach, FL) $1,195
  5. Franklin Ramos (Plantation, FL) $1,127
The rest of the results from yesterday's tournament (as well as the rest of the week's events) will be posted in the "Week In Review" feature.

Tournaments: There are two tournaments on today's schedule, beginning at 11:00am with the $80 No Limit Hold'em w/ $10 Bounties ($2,000 GTD) event.  That tournament is followed by the largest buy-in tournament on the "daily" schedule, a $230 No Limit Hold'em w/ $100 Bounties event, which gets underway at 6:00pm.
