Saturday, October 20th: Event #6 Reaches It's Final Pair Of Flights, Along With The $100,000 Guarantee..."Super High Hands" Return

ICYMI: Yesterday was a significant day for Event #6 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD) of the Isle Open, as the tournament surpassed it's posted guarantee.  Friday's pair of flights attracted a total of (134) entries, of which (15) players bagged chips for tomorrow's Day 2.  Flight 1E saw registration close with (63) entries, as Lawrence Klur bagged the largest stack of the (7) players to bag (467,000).  Flight 1F saw (8) players bag (from a total of 71 entries), led by Ouide Lewis (387,500). 

The combined numbers from the first six flights total (345) entries, of which (39) players have bagged chips for Day 2.  The current prize pool heading into Saturday's action sits at $103,500, already over the $100,000 posted number for the event.  With two more flights remaining, the numbers could potentially reach $150,000, making this the third super successful multi of the series. 

Tournaments: Event #6 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD) has reached it's final flights, with players having two choices of times to play today (11:00am or 6:00pm).  The structures mirror that of the flights that came before them, with 25,000 unit starting stacks, and levels that last (30) minutes (Level 1-13).  Registration is open through Level 8 (and the break that follows), with play scheduled to end at the conclusion of Level 16 (or if the field reaches the 10% mark).  

Sandwiched between the pair of flights, is a $90 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #6, which guarantees 5 seats (and starts at 3:00pm).

Promotions: The high hand period runs from 10:00am-12:00am (midnight), 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.  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).

In addition to the "standard" high hands, from 6:00pm through 12:00am, players are eligible for the "Super High Hands." Players that make a qualifying royal flush, will be awarded up to $3,000, depending on what game they are playing (No Limit Hold'em and Pot Limit Omaha are awarded the $3,000).  Players that make a qualifying straight flush, will be awarded up to $1,200, depending on what game they are playing (No Limit Hold'em and Pot Limit Omaha are awarded the $1,200).  Full rules and payouts are posted in the poker room, and on social media (Twitter and Facebook).
