Monday, May 21st: Kicking Off A New Week Of Poker, Headlined By The Upcoming $200 NLH ($100,000 GTD)

ICYMI: The $130 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack" opened yesterday's tournament action, as players hoped to grab a piece of the $3,000 guaranteed prize pool.  The event's field would see registration close with (38) total entries, and an official prize pool of $3,496. The scheduled payouts were altered, as a five-way deal was agreed to, with George Tardugno taking home first place (and earning $823).  Full results from the tournament are listed below:

1. George Tardugno (Weston, FL) $823
2. Richard Maiorino (Delray Beach, FL) $750
3. Marc Grainck (Parts Unknown, USA) $713
4. Bruce Simberg (Boca Raton, FL) $688
5. Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) $522

The "Monster Stack" was followed by the $130 No Limit Hold'em "Turbo Bounty" ($3,000 GTD), which has been a staple Sunday night event for months now.  Yesterday's installment would see a field that closed with (24) entries, and an official prize pool of $2,400 (not including bounties).  The intimate field equated to some large posted payouts, with the action playing down to an outright winner.  Celso Leroy would best Rolando Garcia during heads-up play, scoring a nice return of $1,200.  A breakdown of the tournament's results are posted below:

1. Celso Leroy (Delray Beach, FL) $1,200
2. Rolando Garcia (Pembroke Pines, FL) $720
3. George Khoriaty (Boca Raton, FL) $480

Tournaments: Monday's tournament schedule begins (at 11:00am) with an $80 No Limit Hold'em event, that boasts a $2,500 guaranteed prize pool.  The tournament is structured with starting stacks of 12,000 units, and levels that last (20) minutes throughout the afternoon.  Registration is open through Level 8, which means players have until just before 2:00pm to join the action.

The evening tournament, which begins at 6:00pm, mirrors the event that came before.  It's an $80 No Limi Hold'em ($2,500 GTD) "double," each Monday in the month of May.

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 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).
