While today starts off with the "Turbo High Hand" promotions, and finishes with the $100 No Limit Hold'em "Big Stack Turbo Bounty ($5,000 GTD), the focus will be on what's sandwiched between the two...the "Spin To Win" high hand promotion. The "money wheel" became a favorite of the players the moment it was introduced, but last month brought things to a new high. the wheel yielded $5,000 winners week after week in January...and that was just the beginning. There were numerous winners over $1,000 each Wednesday, as January 2017 became the richest "Spin To Win" month since it's inception. The wheel will be spinning from 12:00pm-11:00pm, with the qualifying hand from each half hour earning the opportunity to win up to $5,000 ($25,000 if high hand is royal flush).
January's tournament action concluded with two events yesterday, the first being the $100 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack." The $3,000 guaranteed prize pool tournament attracted a total of (44) entries, and an official prize pool of $3,388. Once players reached the money, the final five players agreed to a chop, with Martin Kaplan (West Palm Beach, FL) earning the "winner's share" ($875). The "Tuesday $10K" ($40 No Limit Hold'em $10,000 GTD) had a field of (383) entries, and officially ended up with a prize pool of $12,801. The posted first place prize for the tournament was $3,461, another incredible return on a $40 investment. The tournament once again ended in a multi-way chop, with George Barbarino (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) heading the seven-way deal. His winner's share was worth $2,210, George's largest recorded tournament cash to date. Some other Isle Poker notables included in the deal were Danielle Bastarache (2nd Place), Barry Chazen (4th Place), and Stephen Bromfield (5th Place).
