Tournaments: Saturday's tournament action begins at 11:00am with the "Big Stack Turbo Bounty," a $100 No Limit Hold'em event with $25 bounties.  The tournament is structured with 18,000 unit starting stacks, and (15) minute levels through the event's entirety.

That tournament is followed at 6:00pm, by a $120 No Limit Hold'em that offers a super-deep structure.  Players in the event sit down to starting stacks of 20,000, with levels of (20) minutes while registration is open.  Once the cards get in the air for Level 9 (and registration is closed), those levels transition to (25) minutes.

Promotions: The high hands on Saturday usually run under the "standard" format, whereas the cash awarded ($200 for NLH/$100 for LHE) is given away every (30) minutes (to the qualifying high hand).  While the morning hours will begin that way (9:00am-1:00pm), what follows from the 1:00pm-10:00pm time period is anything but "standard."  

The "bonus promotion" for Saturday is $500 awarded to the qualifying high hands every (20) minutes, from the hours of 1:00pm-10:00pm.
