Monday, March 27th: Last Week Of Of March's "Madness" Upon Us

ICYMI: There was one tournament on Sunday's daily schedule, the $150 No Limit Hold'em ($10,000 GTD) event, which began at 12:00pm.  The tournament's registration wrapped up with a total of (82) entries, and an official prize pool of $10,000.  The final nine players would earn themselves money in the event, with the min-cash bringing home $250, and first place receiving $3,400.  While this is one of the events we usually see end in a multi-way chop, yesterday's installment got down to heads-up play, before the final two decided to split things evenly.  Steven Zukowski (Coral Springs, FL) and Alan Dobrow (Melville, NY) both got $2,750 as part of their heads-up deal, and added another cash t their already impressive tournament resumes.  Zukowski sees his career tournament earnings eclipse $37,000, while notching his fourth recorded cash of the year.  Dobrow crosses the $60,000 mark in career tournament earnings, and records his third cash of the year.

The full results from yesterday's event will be published later this afternoon, in the "Week In Review" feature, and can also be found under the "Daily Tournament Results" link on the righthand sidebar of the blog.

Tournaments: There are two tournaments on Monday's schedule to start the week, the first being the $80 No Limit Hold'em ($2,000 GTD) event, which begins at 11:00am.  The tournament offers a 12,000 unit starting stack, (20) minute levels throughout the event, and $10 bounties for each player elimination.  

Later in the day, starting a 6:00pm, is the $230 No Limit Hold'em w/ $100 Bounties event.  This tournament was one of the "newer introductions" to this month's daily schedule, and has picked up in popularity each and every week.  It is the largest buy-in tournament on the schedule, and has attracted some of the more notable names to frequent the room.

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.
