Tournaments: Friday's tournament action begins with the $120 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack" ($3,000 GTD), one of the more popular recurring events with the players. Reason begin...the beyond generous structure, which sees players sitting down to starting stacks of 25,000 units, and playing levels that last (25) minutes.
The "Monster Stack" is followed at 6:00pm by a "monster" guarantee, with the $75 No Limit Hold'em event boasting a $10,000 guaranteed prize pool. It's a number we haven't seen for a while, when talking about that price point, but should surely bring out a sizable field. Players in the tournament will be sitting down to starting stacks of 15,000 units, and playing levels of (25) minutes over the course of the night. There is also an optional add-on at the registration, offering 10,000 units for a cost of $20 (100% of add-on money goes towards the prize pool).
Promotions: From (9:00am-10:00am), the high hand will award $150 every (30) minutes. The high hands will then transition from 10:00am-12:00am (midnight), with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes. During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible (Isle Open events not eligible for high hand) each half-hour for $100 high hands, 2/2 limit hold'em players eligible for $200 high hands, 2/4 limit hold'em players eligible for $300 high hands, and all other raked games (1/2-5/10 NLH, 4/8 Omaha 8B, 6/12 O.E., etc.) eligible for $400 high hands. From 12:00am-9:00am, players are eligible for $100 high hands every hour.
It should also be noted that started back on November 1st, players are able to win the high hand using only one card in their hand!!! The payouts for those that use one card are different than the standard numbers listed above, and can be found (full listing of one-card payouts on flyers in the poker room).
