Monday, July 15th: After All The Waiting, The 2019 Florida State Poker Championships Has Arrived, Event #1 Begins At 12:00PM

ICYMI: "Satellite Week" for the 2019 Florida State Poker Championships is now over, and while landing the official results of each satellite were difficult to detail, there will be no such mystery over the coming weeks.  Followers of the blog can be confident, that updates from all of the FSPC tournaments will be posted punctually each day (including chip counts, structure sheets, results, etc.).

Tournaments: The 2019 Florida State Poker Championships begin at 12:00pm, as the cards get in the air for Event #1, which is an $1,100 No Limit Hold'em event (with a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool).  The tournament is structured with 30,000 unit starting stacks, and (40) minute levels during each of it's Day 1's (levels will transition to 60 minutes at the final table).  Registration is open through all of Day 1 (which is scheduled to play 12 levels), and will continue to stay open until the first hand is dealt on Day 2.

At 3:00pm, there is a $250 No Limit Hold'em Satellite into Event #1 ($1,100 No Limit Hold'em $100,000), which carries a (1) seat guarantee.  This same satellite ran yesterday afternoon, and ended up awarding (10) seats (and a cash prize for 11th place) to the first event of the series.  

To wrap up the day's schedule, there is an $80 No Limit Hold'em Step Satellite, which guarantees (3) seats into the $340 NLH FSPC Main Event Satellite (with runs on July 23rd, at 11:00am).

Promotions: The "standard" high hands have changed in a big way, as they will be awarding up to $300 every (20) minutes (from 9:00am-12:00am).  Every jackpot game is eligible for the same amount, with the full $300 being awarded to high hands that are made using two cards.  Those made using one card, will be awarded $150.  For those players in tournaments, two-card high hands are worth $100, with one-card high hands walking away with $50.
