ICYMI: Yesterday's schedule for the Isle Open surrounded the $1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event ($300,000 GTD), with three satellites for the event (two of which were step-satellites).  The 10:00am (3 seats guaranteed) and 6:00pm (5 seats guaranteed) step-satellites awarded a total of eight seats into a $340 NLH Mega-Satellite of the player's choice, with the winners listed below:
  1. Stanton Drazen ($340 NLH Mega-Satellite Entry)

At 2:00pm, there was a standard $175 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #11 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event), which attracted a total of (21) entries, and ended up awarding (2) seats (and one place that was awarded cash).  The results from the satellite are listed below:
  1. Bill Massey (Isle Open Event #11 Seat)
  2. Robert Jonsson (Isle Open Event #11 Seat)
  3. Zack Fish ($150 Cash)
Tournaments: There are two more satellites on today's Isle Open schedule, with a "first time" event to the series (and any series for that matter) sandwiched between.  At 10:00am, there is another $80 No Limit Hold'em Step-Satellite (Into $340 NLH Mega-Satellite).  The step-satellite is structured with 10,000 unit starting stacks, and levels that last (15) minutes.  Registration is open through Level 10, and the break that follows.

At 2:00pm, Event #8 ($1,000 8 Game Mix) of the Isle Open gets underway, making it's first time to the schedule.  For those that don't know what 8-Game Mix is, it's H.O.R.S.E. (all limit), with the addition of NLH, PLO, and 2-7 Triple Draw.  The tournament is structured with 25,000 unit starting stacks, has (30) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8 (and the break that follows).

The final event of the day (at 6:00pm) is a standard $175 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #11 ($1,500 NLH Main Event).  The satellite is structured with 12,000 unit starting stacks, and levels that last (20) minutes.  

Promotions: Tuesday's promotions start with the every-popular Full House Early Bird, with the first (25) full houses awarded up to $60.  The amount won depends on which game is being played, as 2/2 Limit Hold'em players earn $20 (for each full house while eligible), 2/4 Limit Hold'em players earning $40 (for each full house while eligible), and $60 for those playing: 1/2 No Limit Hold'em, 2/5 No Limit Hold'em, 5/10 No Limit Hold'em, 3/6 Limit Hold'em, and 8/16 O.E.

The standard high hands begin at 10:00am (because off the full house promotion), 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.  That high hand period will run through 12:00am, then transitioning to $100 every (60) minutes from 12:00am-3:00am.
