As the Main Event final table was wrapping up, Event #14 of the Isle Open was just getting underway. The $175 No Limit Hold'em event was the final tournament of the series, and boasted a $25,000 guaranteed prize pool. After ten levels of open registration, the field would close with (204) entries, and an official prize pool of $27,540. The top (26) players were scheduled to reach the money, with the tournament clock showing a $6,777 first place prize. The top four numbers were altered, as the event ended in a chop, with Anthony Kern (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) being awarded first place money in the deal (along with the trophy). Results from the deal, along with the rest of the final table, are listed below:

Tournaments: With the 2018 Isle Open now in the books, we shift focus (for one day) towards the recurring tournament schedule. There are two events on the schedule today, starting at 11:00am, with an $80 No Limit Hold'em tournament. The event is structured with 12,000 unit starting stacks, levels that last (20) minutes, and registration open through Level 8. There is also an optional add-on at the end of Level 8, with players seeing a return of 10,000 units for $20 (100% of add-on money goes towards the prize pool).
The 6:00pm time slot hosts the same $80 No Limit Hold'em tournament, which also carries the same exact structure.
Promotions: The day begins with the "New Early Bird" Full House Promotion, which started August 27th, and runs every Wednesday. 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).
From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
