Thursday, December 8th: Reaching New Heights

This Thursday will start just like every other this month, with the Limit Hold'em' Early Bird Promotion, seeing players that arrive between the hours of 9:00am-11:00am (looking to play limit hold'em) receive their promotion "tickets."  While the highlight is this evening's event, the tournament schedule will get underway at 11:00am with the $80 No Limit Hold'em w/ $10 Bounties ($2,000 Guaranteed).

One of the things that separates the Isle Casino Poker Room from others, is the drive to try new tournaments, whether it be structure, price point, or guarantee related.  Tonight's 6:00pm event is a $130 buy-in No Limit Hold'em event with a $30,000 guaranteed prize pool!!!  We've seen a handful of hefty guarantees for a "daily" tournament, but a $30,000 guarantee for a one-day event is really unparalleled in the area.  You can check the blog tomorrow afternoon for a short recap, as well as the official results from the tournament.
