ICYMI: Monday's "Big Stack Turbo Bounty"  ($100 No Limit Hold'em with $25 bounties) saw registration close with (36) entries, and a prize pool of $2,867 (including bounties).  Another Isle Poker Room tournament notable would earn a first place for their resume, as Francois Gagne (Hillsboro Beach, FL) topped the payouts ($655).

2. Patricia Conrad (Delray Beach, FL) $508

Last night's evening tournament was a $130 No Limit Hold'em event, and even without a posted guarantee, the event attracted a nice sized field/prize pool.  A total of (34) entries made up the $3,298 prize pool, with first place scheduled to take home $1,351.  There were five posted payout spots after registration closed, with the first two places receiving their scheduled monies.  Things changed afterwards though, as the remaining three players agreed to a deal.

1. Patrick Biancone (Delray Beach, FL) $1,019
2. Roberto Desogos (Pompano Beach, FL) $938
3. Robert Kuznietz (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $714

5. Dean Arahovites (Margate, FL) $264

Tournaments: "Tournament Tuesday" starts at 11:00am with the $100 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack," a tournament that has a $3,000 GTD.  The event is structured with 25,000 unit starting stacks, and levels that last (20) minutes throughout the afternoon.

The "Monster Stack" is followed at 6:00pm by one of the last "big guarantee" tournaments of the month.  The $60 No Limit Hold'em event has an $8,000 guaranteed prize pool, and is one of the most popular recurring evening events with the players.  The tournament is structured with 14,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and an optional add-on at the end of registration.

Promotions: It's all about getting to the poker room early on Tuesdays (and Thursdays), as the "Early Bird Full House" promotion offers an awarded cash prize (depending on game plated) for the first (50) full houses of the day (in live cash games).  That promotion is followed by $300 high hands every (15) minutes, from the hours of 12:00pm-4:00pm.
