The 6:00pm event was another $80 No Limit Hold'em tournament, but the guarantee was a very healthy $5,000. The field would eventually close with (75) entries, and even with the option add-ons included into the prize pool, it would close directly on the $5,000 number. The players to reach the ten-handed were guaranteed a piece of the pool, with action eventually ending in a three-way deal. Robert Peoples took first place money ($1,600), after holding a commanding chip lead at the time of the chop. Official results from the evening event are posted below:

Tournaments: Saturday's tournament schedule begins at 11:00am, with a $250 No Limit Hold'em "Black Chip Bounty." The event is structured with 16,000 unit starting stacks, levels that last (25) minutes, and registration that is open through Level 8.

The day's headlining event begins at 6:00pm, and is a $150 No Limit Hold'em event, with a very healthy $10,000 guarantee. The tournament is structured with starting stacks of 16,000 units, and levels that last (20) minutes. These five-figure guaranteed events always attract really nice crowds, and tonight's installment should be no different. Players have until the beginning of Level 9 to join the action, which is a period of almost three hours to enter to event.
Promotions: The high hand period runs from 10:00am-12:00am (midnight), 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. From 12:00am-9:00am, players are eligible for $100 high hands every hour.
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).
In addition to the "standard" high hands, from 6:00pm through 1:00am, players are eligible for the "Super High Hands."
