The "Monster Stack" was followed by an $80 No Limit Hold'em event, which had a $2,500 guaranteed prize pool. The posted number would be surpassed once again, as (55) entries made up the field, which equated to a prize pool of $3,135. Six players were scheduled to reach the money, but once the tournament hit the money bubble, the remaining group agreed a seven-way chop. Kenneth Waldrop (Ashland, VA) had the largest stack at the time of the deal, and took home $609 for first place.

Tournaments: There are $20,000 worth of combined guarantees with today's pair of recurring events, starting with the $120 No Limit Hold'em "Big Stack Turbo Bounty." The event has a $5,000 guaranteed prize pool, and is structured with starting stacks of 18,000 units, and levels that last (15) minutes. There is an optional add-on at the end of registration (Level 10), which allows players to add 10,000 units to their stack, for a cost of $25 (with 100% of add-on money going towards the prize pool). Players in the tournament will also receive a $25 "bounty" for every opponent they eliminate.
A majority of the combined guaranteed number from the day comes from the evening tournament, which is a $150 No Limit Hold'em event with a $15,000 guaranteed prize pool. The tournament is structured with 16,000 unit starting stacks, and levels that last (20) minutes over the course of the evening.
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).
