Monday, March 13th: New Week...New "Daily" Tournament Introduced

ICYMI: There was one tournament on sunday's schedule, the $150 No Limit Hold'em $10,000 GTD, which drew (88) total entries.  The official prize pool for the tournament was $10,120, with the final nine players reaching the money.  After five eliminations from the final table (four of which were awarded prize money), there was a deal struck between the remaining players.  The five-way chop saw Arnold Erenstoft (Coconut Creek, FL) declared the winner, earning himself $2,157.  The others involved in the agreement were Walter West ($1,737), Fred Allenspach ($1,662), John Reslow ($1,515), and Katherine Hoyle ($1,430).  The official results from the event will be posted in the "Week In Review" feature (to be published later today), and will also be found on the righthand sidebar (under "Daily Tournament Results").

Tournaments: This week's daily tournament schedule begins with two events today, the $80 No Limit Hold'em ($2,000 GTD) at 11:00am, followed by a new tournament to the room.  At 6:00pm, the $230 No Limit Hold'em w/ $100 Bounties will be introduced as a recurring event.  This "Deep Stack Bounty" event sees players sitting down to starting stack of 15,000 units, and offers a structure with (20) minute levels (Levels 1-8), which transition to (25) minutes (Levels 9+).  This has been a tournament that players have been requesting for a while now, so it should be an event that fits seamlessly into the Monday evening tournament slot.

Promotions: Outside of the "standard" high hand promotion, the weeks gets a "quick" start with "Turbo High Hands," offering $100 every (10) minutes from the period of 9:00am-12:00pm.  Rollovers do apply with this promotion (with each game in the house eligible), so it's not uncommon to see a player pick up anywhere from $100-$500 during the promotion.
