Tournaments: Today begins the $175 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD) event, a tournament that had an over $190,000 prize pool last month.  There are eight opening flights over the next four days, all with the same structure.  Players will be sitting down to starting stacks of 15,000 units, and playing levels that last (25) minutes over the course of the tournament.  Registration is open through Level 8, and the break that follows, which equates to just under four hours for players to get in. Play is scheduled to conclude after Level 16, unless the field reach the 10% mark before that point.  Those players that successfully bag chips in each opening flight, will be returning to play on Sunday for Day 2 (12:00pm).

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).
