Tournaments: Sunday's tournament action kicks of at 11:00am, with the cards flying for the $120 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack" ($2,000 GTD). The tournament is structured with starting stacks of 25,000 units, and levels that last (20) minutes throughout. It is one of the most generous structures any player will find for a recurring event, and the numbers for the tournament show it.
The "Monster Stack" is followed at 6:00pm, by the $120 No Limit Hold'em "Turbo Bounty," which has a $2,500 guarantee. This tournament is very similar to the "Big Stack Turbo Bounty," with the exception of the starting stack. Players enter the event with stacks of 14,000 units, and play levels that last (15) minutes. There is an optional add-on at the end of registration (Level 10), with players seeing a return of 10,000 units for $25 (with 100% of add-on money going towards the prize pool).
Promotions: 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 (midnight), with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes. During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible (Isle Open events not eligible for high hand) 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 started back on November 1st, 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).
