Tournaments: The waiting is finally over, as the 2019 Battles At The Beach begins today!!! Sunday's schedule hosts the opening pair of flights for Event #1, which is a $150 No Limit Hold'em event, with a $50,000 guaranteed prize pool. The tournament is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, (30) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8. Action is scheduled to play through Level 16, or the 10% mark (of the final field entry number), whichever happens to be reached first. Those players that are successful in bagging chips at the end of either Flight 1A or Flight 1B, will then return on Wednesday (at 12:00pm) for Day 2.
Promotions: The high hands will run from 9:00am-12:00am, with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes. During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible each half-hour for $100 high hands, 2/2 limit hold'em players eligible for $200 high hands, 2/4 limit hold'em players eligible for $300 high hands, and all other raked games (1/2-5/10 NLH, 4/8 Omaha 8B, 6/12 O.E., etc.) eligible for $400 high hands.
It should also be noted that players are able to win the high hand using only one card in their hand. The payouts for those that use one card are different than the standard numbers listed above, and can be found (full listing of one-card payouts on flyers in the poker room).
From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
