The evening time slot (6:00pm) hosted an $80 No Limit Hold'em event, that boasted a guaranteed prize pool of $2,000. That number would be eclipsed with ease, as the field closed with (40) total entries, which equated to $2,740.

- Jan Sayfie (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $715
- Jerrold Solov (Pompano Beach, FL) $551
- Anthony Vulkis (Pompano Beach, FL) $529
