Thursday, December 26th: No Post-Holiday Blues, As $80 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD) Begins Today!!!!

Tournaments: The wrapping and unwrapping of presents are done for some, and while another holiday is just around the corner (New Years Eve), we still have one more weekend in 2019.  What better time to fit in a multi-flight tournament, with a five-figure guarantee!! Today starts the $80 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD), which has four starting flights (over the next two days), and Day 2 on Saturday.  There are two afternoon flights (Thursday and Friday at 11:00am), and two evening flights (Thursday and Friday at 6:00pm), for players to choose from.  The tournament is structured with 16,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and has registration open through Level 8.  As mentioned above, any players that succesfully bag chips in one of the starting flights, will return for Day 2 on Saturday (12:00pm).


Promotions: The doors open at 9:00am, with three hours of "Turbo High Hands," as $100 will be awarded every (10) minutes (rollovers apply).  The promotion runs from 9:00am-12:00pm, and has quickly become popular with the players (as the rollovers have seen some high hands reach the $1,000 mark!!!).

The standard high hand promotion then takes over, and runs from 12:00pm-12:00am.  Qualifying high hands will be awarded $300, given away every (30) minutes (no rollovers).  During that period, if the winning high hand is made using one card, a $150 prize will be awarded.  For those players playing in a tournament, winning high hands will be paid out $100.

From 12:00am-3:00am, $50 high hands will be awarded every (60) minutes.
