Sunday, December 1st: A New Month Brings Some Exciting Changes To Daily High Hand Promotions!!!!

ICYMI: Saturday's tournament schedule began at 11:00am, with an $80 No Limit Hold'em event, which carried a $1,500 guarantee.  That number would be easily eclipsed, as registration for the tournament closed with. (36) entries, and an official prize pool of $1,980. Five players were scheduled to reach the money, with action in the event playing down to an outright winner.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:

3. Arlene Vazquez (Parkland, FL) $297
4. Bobby Cole (Davie, FL) $218
5. Alan Levin (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $158

The day's headlining tournament got underway at 6:00pm, and was a $130 No Limit Hold'em ($10,000 GTD).  After eight levels of open registration, the field would close with (104) total entries, and an official prize pool of $10,088.  Of those entries, (13) players would reach the money, with action playing down to the point where six players remained.  A deal was then struck, with Melissa Hunt (Lauderdale By The Sea, FL) taking home first place money.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:

Tournaments: The month of December starts off with a day that is dedicated to the $80 No Limit Hold'em "Sit-N-Go."  These single-table tournaments are paying out two spots, with the first and second place finishers earning $350 (adding an element of "survivor" to the proceedings).  Players that are interested in these "Sit-N-Gos" can put their name on the list (at the brush stand), and once ten names are collected, the tournament will begin.

Promotions: With the calendar changing over to December, there are some changes in promotions to take note of.  Every day, from 9:00am through 12:00pm, the high hands will be $100 every (10) minutes.  The "turbo" high hands will have rollovers, meaning we will see some healthy payouts over the course of the three hour period.  Qualifying high hands can be made using one or two cards, and will receive the same $100 payout (or whatever the rollover amount is for the period).  

The "standard" high hands will be awarding $300 every (30) minutes (from 12:00pm-12:00am).  Every jackpot game is eligible for the same amount, with the full $150 being rewarded to those that use one card to make the high hand.  For those players in tournaments, high hands are worth $100.

From 12:00am-9:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
