The final numbers for the tournament saw a total of (334) entries, of which (41) players will be returning for play this afternoon (12:00pm).  Official Day 2 seating assignments, along with event payouts, will be posted shortly after this morning update.

Tournaments: As mentioned above, the day's tournament schedule begins at 12:00pm, with Day 2 of the $80 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD).  There are no structural changes to mention, as play will resume in Level 16 (with 19:00 minutes remaining), and continue with (20) minute levels through conclusion.

The evening time slot (6:00pm) is highlighted by a special tournament, the $130 No Limit Hold'em ($10,000 GTD).  The single-day event is structured with 30,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and has registration open through Level 8.  This same tournament ran earlier in the month (December 14th), and ended up with a prize pool over $11,000.

Promotions: 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-6:00pm).  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.

At 6:00pm, the high hands grow even larger, as $500 will be awarded every (30) minutes.  The winning high hands made with one card (during the 6:00pm-midnight period) will be awarded $250.

From 12:00am-9:00am, the high hand will be awarded $50 every (30) minutes.
