Monday, September 24th: New Week, Same Great Tournament And Promotion Action

ICYMI: Sunday's tournament action started at 11:00am, with the ever-popular $130 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack," which boasted a $3,000 guarantee.  The official prize pool would end up falling directly on the posted number, after the field closed with (30) entries.  A total of seven players were scheduled to reach the money, with the posted payouts eventually altered, when players made a deal at the final table.  The official results from the "Monster Stack" are listed below:
  1. Robert Barkan (Key West, FL) $708
  2. Joseph Mancuso (Pompano Beach, FL) $568
  3. Arnold Cohen (West Palm Beach, FL) $516
  4. Marquis Grant (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $411
  5. Stacy Thomas (Jupiter, FL) $357
  6. William Reich (Pompano Beach, FL) $249
  7. Raymond Pedalino (River Edge, NJ) $191
The 6:00pm time slot hosted the $130 No Limit Hold'em "Turbo Bounty" ($5,000 GTD), which has become one of the more popular events with players.  After ten levels of open registration, the tournament's field would close with (43) entries, and a prize fund of $3,925 (which doesn't include the $25 bounties).  Five players were scheduled to reach the money, but before the bubble was reached, a deal was agreed to.  Six players ended up walking away with a piece of the prize pool, with the top five each earning $737.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:
  1. Jeffrey Oldakowski (Pompano Beach, FL) $737
  2. Daniel Steele (North Palm Beach, FL) $737
  3. Mark Rossman (Brunswick, NJ) $737
  4. Patricia Conrad (Lake Worth, FL) $737
  5. James Holheimer (Somerset, NJ) $737
  6. Robert Kuznietz (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $240
Tournaments: The day's tournament schedule begins at 11:00am, with an $80 No Limit Hold'em event.  The tournament is structured with 12,000 unit starting stacks, levels that last (20) minutes, and registration that is open through Level 8.  At registration's close, players will have the opportunity to purchase an "add-on," receiving 10,000 units for $20.  This tournament is also eligible for the "free seats" to this Friday's $80 No Limit Hold'em ($3,000 GTD).  Any player that makes quads or better, will receive entry in the tournament just listed.

The evening time slot (6:00pm) is filled by a $100 No Limit Hold'em event, which will run without a posted guarantee.  The tournament is structured with 14,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.  At the end of Level 8, players will have the option to purchase an "add-on," which will award 10,000 units for $20.  

Promotions: The day begins with the "New Early Bird" Full House Promotion, which started August 27th, and runs every Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday.  Opposed to the full house promotion that includes all games, this particular promotion is for the limit hold'em players.  Starting at 9:00am, the first (25) full houses (in a limit game), will be awarded $40 each. 

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, with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes.  During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible 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.  

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).
