Tuesday, November 27th: Powsner And Vulpis Top Monday's Chops, Isle Classic Just Days Away!!!

ICYMI: Monday's tournament slate kicked off at 11:00am, with the $150 No Limit Hold'em ($8,000 GTD).  The numbers dipped from last week's all-time high, as registration closed with (49) entries in the field.  The $8,000 prize pool was scheduled to be spread across seven pay spots, with some healthy payouts (because of the overlay).  After three in-the-money eliminations, a four-way deal was agreed to, with Karin Powsner (Pompano Beach, FL) taking home first place money ($1,924).  Official results from the tournament are listed below:
  1. Karin Powsner (Pompano Beach, FL) $1,924
  2. Daniel Genachte (Deerfield Beach, FL) $1,706
  3. David Echavarria (Bay Harbor, RI) $1,470
  4. Randy Smock (St. Louis, MO) $1,460
  5. Aaron Berman (Wellington, FL) $600
  6. Marc Wolfe (Miami, FL) $480
  7. Stephen Caplan (Canada) $360
The evening tournament was a $90 No Limit Hold'em event, with a $1,500 guaranteed prize pool.  After eight levels of open registration, the field closed with (23) entries, and an official prize pool of $1,761.  Two spots were scheduled to get paid, but a deal was agreed to on the money bubble, with Anthony Vulpis (Pompano Beach, FL) grabbing first place money.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:
  1. Anthony Vulpis (Pompano Beach, FL) $705
  2. Robert Lovett (Boynton Beach, FL) $704
  3. Robert Alvarado (Pompano Beach, FL) $352
Tournaments: Today's tournament schedule kicks off (at 11:00am) with a non-no limit hold'em tournament.  The $150 Omaha 8B Hi/Lo event boasts a $3,000 guarantee, and a very solid structure.  Players in the tournament sit down to starting stacks of 15,000 units, along with levels that last (25) minutes.  Registration is open through Level 8, allowing close to three hours for players to join the action.

The evening tournament is one of the "staples" of the month, as it is in the 6:00pm time slot each and every Tuesday.  The $175 No Limit Hold'em event is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, and levels that last (20) minutes.  Registration is open through Level 8, with the window closing at approximately 9:00pm.  


Promotions: Outside of the "standard" high hands, the poker opens with the "new" Full House Promotion.  The proceedings begin once the doors of the poker room open, with the first (25) full houses made, earning a $40 prize.  Each jackpot eligible cash game is included in the promotion, with two rules to keep in mind, when thinking about winning the $40.  In order to be eligible, the full  house must be made using two cards, and must be the winning hand.

 The day's "standard" high hand period will last from 9:00am-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.
