ICYMI: Tuesday's tournament schedule kicked off at 11:00am, with a $100 No Limit Hold'em event, that boasted a $2,000 guaranteed prize pool.  By the time the registration period closed, the tournament clock showed (20) total entries, and an official prize pool of $2,000.  Three spots were scheduled to reach the money, but players agreed to a five-way deal, with the official results listed below:

The evening tournament was the player-favorite $130 No Limit Hold'em "Chip Buster," which had a $3,000 guarantee.  The posted number would be surpassed, as the field closed with (33) total entries, which equated to an official prize pool of $3,201.  Official results from the tournament are listed below:

Tournaments: The day's recurring tournament schedule begins (at 11:00am) with a $100 No Limit Hold'em ($2,000 GTD).  The event is structured with 14,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and registration that is open through Level 8.

In the evening time slot, we see a $60 No Limit Hold'em tournament ($1,000 GTD), that offers rake-free $40 re-buys.  The tournament is structured with $8,000 unit starting stacks, (15) minute levels, and has registration that is open through Level 10.

Promotions: Things begin with the "Full House Promo," which will open the doors seven days a week (9:00am on Saturday and Sunday).  The proceedings begin once the doors of the poker room open, with the first (25) full houses made, earning a $50 prize.  Each jackpot eligible cash game is included in the promotion, with two rules to keep in mind, when thinking about winning the $50.  In order to be eligible, the full house must be made using two cards, and must be the winning hand.

The "standard" high hands will be awarding $150 every (20) minutes (from 9:00am-12:00am).  Every jackpot game is eligible for the same amount, with the full $150 being rewarded, regardless of one or two cards being used to make the high hand.  For those players in tournaments, two-card high hands are worth $100, with one-card high hands walking away with $50.

From 12:00am-3:00am, the high hand will be awarded $100 every (60) minutes.
