After three opening days, Event #11 of the 2018 Isle Open heads to Day 2 with (207) entries, of which (89) have bagged chips. The current prize pool sits at $279,450, but will change the moment action resumes today, as registration is still open (and will stay open through Level 12).
Last night was Event #12 of the Isle Open ($130 No Limit Hold'em "Turbo Bounty" $5,000 GTD), and while it may have been overshadowed by the Main Event, there was a notable storyline that came from the tournament. Raminder Singh (Delray Beach, FL) became the first player to win two trophies during this series, shipping back-to-back $130 NLH "Turbo Bounty" events. Thirteen may widely be known as an unlucky number, but not for Raminder, as that was his 13th major tournament win here at the Isle Poker Room. Official details from last nights event will be posted during today's Main Event coverage.
Tournaments: The day's tournament schedule kicks off (at 10:00am) with a $75 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #13 of the Isle Open ($300 No Limit Hold'em Black Chip Bounty $10,000 GTD). The satellite is structured with 10,000 unit starting stacks, (15) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.
At 12:00pm, Day 2 of the Isle Open Main Event will resume, with at least (89) players returning for action. We say "at least," because registration is still open through Level 12 (three levels into the day), so there will be players buying in before the day starts, and over the course of day's early stages. Players buying in will receive 40,000 unit starting stacks, with the first three levels of the day lasting (50) minutes. Once registration is closed (Level 12), the play will resume with levels lasting (60) minutes, and will stay that way through the tournaments conclusion.
The final tournament of the day gets underway at 3:00pm, and is Event #13 of the Isle Open ($300 No Limit Hold'em "Black Chip Bounty" $10,000 GTD). The tournament is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, levels that last (25) minutes, and registration open through Level 8.
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, 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).
From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
