Tuesday, December 27th: Recapping Monday's Action, Finally Tuesday $10K Of The Year

Frank Scala (Boca Raton, FL)
Yesterday's highlighting event of the day was the $130 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD) tournament, which got under way at 6:00pm.  The tournament attracted a total of (241) entries, which surpassed the guaranteed number, and yielded an official prize pool of $23,377.  Of the (241) entries, (27) of them would get paid, with tournament regulars Leonid Goldshteyn (19th Place) and John Scigliano (25th Place) earning themselves a min-cash.

Play continued once the field reached the final table, and after three eliminations (including Thomas Millward), the remaining player began to discuss a deal.  After crunching the numbers, the remaining seven player decided on a deal, with Frank Scala (Boca Raton, FL) being declared the winner (and taking home first place money worth $2,563).

Along with the "Limit Hold'em Early Bird" promotion on today's schedule, the "Tuesday 10K" plays out for the final table this year.  The $40 No Limit Hold'em tournament, which holds with it a $10,000 guaranteed prize pool, has quickly become one of the most popular events on each monthly schedule (as per the players).
