Tournaments: With over (1,000) entries, and a prize pool that's already eclipsed the $100,000 guarantee, today's final pair of flights are sure to be the largest. The 11:00am (Flight 1I) and 6:00pm (Flight 1J) flights are the last opportunity for players to try and bag chips for tomorrow's Day 2. Each of the flights have the same great structure, with 50,000 unit starting stacks, (30) minute levels, and registration open through Level 8. Official chip counts from each flight will be posted at the end of play every evening.
Promotions: Things for the day begin with the "Full House Promotion," which kicks off the action seven days a week (when the doors open on the weekdays, and at 9:00am on Saturday and Sunday). Players in all jackpot eligible games are awarded $50 for each full house made. There are some important rules to think about though, as the full house must be made using two cards, and has to be the winning hand.
The "standard" high hand process will see $150 up for grabs, every (20) minutes. From 9:00am-12:00am, players may qualify for the high hand, as long as they are holding aces-full or better (using one or two cards).
From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
