Tournaments: Todays' tournament action begins at 11:00am, with the $120 No Limit Hold'em "Big Stack Turbo Bounty," which has a $3,000 guaranteed prize pool. The event is structured with starting stacks of 18,000 units, and levels that last (15) minutes throughout the afternoon. At the end of registration (after Level 10), players can choose to take an optional add-on, which sees a return of 10,000 units for $25 (with 100% of add-on money going towards the prize pool). Players will also be awarded a $25 green chip for every elimination throughout the event.
After the "Big Stack Turbo Bounty" concludes, an $80 No Limit Hold'em event follows (at 6:00pm), which has a $2,500 guarantee. The tournament is the same that has run the two evenings prior, and carries the sam structure. Players sit down to starting stacks of 12,000 units, and play levels that last (20) minutes.
Promotions: From (9:00am-10:00am), the high hand will award $150 every (30) minutes. The high hands will then transition from 10:00am-12:00am (midnight), with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes.

It should also be noted that started back on November 1st, players are able to win the high hand using only one card in their hand!!!
