As Event #2 was winding down, players began arriving (6:00pm) for Event #3 of the Isle Poker Classic ($175 No Limit Hold'em $20,000 GTD). After ten levels of open registration, the field would close with (136) entries, which equated to a prize pool of $20,000. The tournament clock showed seventeen place getting paid, with first place scheduled to take home $5,650. Once the money was reached, we saw names like William Farnan (16th place), Daniel Gonzalez (14th place) and Elliot Zaydman (11th place) record pre-final table results.

Tournaments: There are three tournaments on today's Isle Poker Classic schedule, with two "main schedule" events, and one satellite. The action gets started at 11:00am, with Event #4 of the Isle Poker Classic, which is a $200 No Limit Hold'em "Seniors 50+" event. The tournament is structured with 15,000 units, (30) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.
Just a few hours later, a "new" event finds it's way to the series schedule. Event #5 is one of the two non-no limit hold'em events on the schedule, and is a $240 Pot Limit Omaha 8B (Hi/Lo) tournament. The event is structured with 15,000 unit starting stacks, (30) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.
The final piece of Wednesday's schedule is a $130 No Limit Hold'em Satellite Into Event #7 ($1,100 No Limit Hold'em Main Event $200,000 GTD). The satellite is structured with 12,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.
Promotions: Outside of the "standard" high hands, the poker room 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.
