Sunday, August 25th: Putting A Bow On Another Great Week Of Poker Action At Isle Casino Pompano Park

ICYMI: The $80 No Limit Hold'em "Bankroll Builder" ($2,000 GTD) got Saturday's tournament action going, with the cards in the air at 11:00am.  After eight levels of open registration, the field would close with (24) entries, and an official prize pool of $2,000.  Four places were scheduled to get paid, but players ended up making a deal on the money bubble, with the official results listed below:
  1. Cathy Miller (Jupiter, FL) $571
  2. Bernie Boudle (Davie, FL) $517
  3. Gerald Blum (Pompano Beach, FL) $352

  5. Leo Birov (Sunny Isles Beach, FL) $274
The evening time slot hosted the $100 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack" ($2,500 GTD), which boasts one of the better structures for a recurring event (with 25,000 unit starting stacks, and 20 minute levels).  The posted guaranteed ended up getting crushed, as registration closed with (50) total entries, equating to a prize pool of $3,850.  Seven places would be scheduled to receive a pice of the prize pool, with action playing down to three-handed...at which point a deal was agreed to.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:

Tournaments: Sunday's recurring schedule offers up another day of "fresh" events, which are making their appearance for the first time ever.  At 11:00am, we have the inaugural running of the $130 No Limit Hold'em "Seniors And Veterans" event, which boasts $100 "rake-free" re-buys, and an guaranteed prize pool of $2,000.  The tournament is structured with 15,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.  Re-buys are offered when players have 15,000 unit stacks (or below).

The 6:00pm tournament has been labeled "Super Sunday Nights," as the $50 No Limit Hold'em ($1,000 GTD) event runs with $30 "rake-free" re-buys.  The tournament is structured with 10,000 unit starting stacks, (15) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 10.  Re-buys are offered when players have 10,000 unit stacks (or below).

Promotions: Things begin with the "Full House Promo," which will open the doors seven days a week (9:00am on Saturday and Sunday).  The proceedings begin once the doors of the poker room open, with the first (25) full houses made, earning a $50 prize.  Each jackpot eligible cash game is included in the promotion, with two rules to keep in mind, when thinking about winning the $50.  In order to be eligible, the full house must be made using two cards, and must be the winning hand.

The "standard" high hands will be awarding $150 every (20) minutes (from 9:00am-12:00am).  Every jackpot game is eligible for the same amount, with the full $150 being rewarded, regardless of one or two cards being used to make the high hand.  For those players in tournaments, two-card high hands are worth $100, with one-card high hands walking away with $50.

From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
