Flight 1E saw registration close with (150) entries, with numerous players grabbing the top spot, as the action played down to the final minutes of Level 16. After the final hand was dealt, it would be Juan "JC" Madrid bagging the flight's chip lead (330,000). He just bested Elliot Zaydman (320,000), as the two gained a good amount a separation from the rest of the field.
Flight 1F may have ended up with a smaller number than than it's afternoon partner (123 entries), but it ended up giving us the largest overall chip count, bagged by Wilnor Mercado (517,500). Wilnor ended up with more than double his nearest competitor from the flight, as the second largest stack belonged to Cameron Collins (250,000).
The total numbers to this point of Event #1 have been nothing short of incredible, as the combined numbers of entries to this point, sits at (642). The current prize pool is $101,436, with today's final pair of flights only helping that number balloon larger.
Tournaments: After six very successful flights for Event #1 of the Isle Open, we continue with the final pair of flights, and another $50 No Limit Hold'em Satellite (10 Seats) guaranteed. The day's action begins at 11:00am, with Flight 1G of Event #1. There are six flights over the next three days, with players that bag chips returning on Sunday (at 12:00pm) for Day 2. Each of the flights are structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, levels that last (30) minutes, and registration that is open through Level 8 (and the break that follows). Play is scheduled to conclude after Level 16, or when the field reaches the 10% mark, whichever happens first.
Flight 1H of Event #1 is in the 6:00pm time slot, and carries the same structure as the afternoon flight before it. There will be live blogged coverage of Flight 1E, with the official chip counts from both flights to be posted in the early morning hours (Tuesday).
Sandwiched in between the flights (2:00pm), is the $50 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #1, which guarantees (10) seats. The satellite is structured with 8,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and registration that lasts eight levels.
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."
