Friday, December 30th: Another Final Table Chop, Final Weekend Of The Year

Claude Comtois (Ft. Lauderdale, FL)
We were beginning to get used to the $30,000 guarantee events on Thursday night's this month, but we were back to the $40 NLH ($10,000 GTD) last night.  The players were out in force once again, and the event ended up (391) total entries, which totaled with the optional "add-on" at registration's close, gave us a prize pool of $13,257.  The posted first place prize was over $3,500, another incredible return on investment for a $40 event, but the prize pool would be altered after the players agreed to a final table chop (10-way deal).  

Calude Comtois (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) would take home the trophy, along with the winner's share of the deal, which totaled $1,719.  While Comtois's name isn't that familiar to followers of the blog, we did see regular Raymond Rickard (6th Place - $1,033) notch yet another cash to what has been a great year of tournament poker for him.

Only three more tournament remain in the year, with one of those on the schedule this evening ($150 No Limit Hold'em - $10,000 GTD).  This early afternoon also hosts the final "Turbo High Hand" promotion of the year, with $100 given away to the qualifying high hand every (10) minutes (between the hours of 9:00am-12:00pm.

6:00pm - $150 No Limit Hold'em ($10,000 Guarantee):

- Players will start with 20,000 in tournament chips
- Late and re-entries for the first (8) levels
- Alternate and late entries will start with a full stack
- Levels are (25) minutes in length throughout the event
