Sunday, December 27th: ...About Last Night, And Looking Forward To The Third Leg Of The "Weekend Swing"

ICYMI: With the holidays now in the rear view mirror, players took aim at last night's $100 No Limit Hold'em ($3,000 GTD).  We have preached "value" in this tournament, considering the more than reasonable buy-in, and impressive (potential) return on that hundred-dollar bill.  Last night's event began at 5:00pm, and ended up attracting an official total of (104) entries (which equated to a $7,800) prize pool.    Of those entries, (13) players were scheduled to earn money, with all eyes on the top three prizes.  With such big numbers up top, the tournament ended in a three-way deal, with the official results listed below:
  1. David Maddox (Boynton Beach, FL) $1,701
  2. Chawla Singh (Tampa, FL) $1,542
  3. Celso Leroy (Delray Beach, FL) $1,494
  4. Steve Raeman (Boca Raton, FL) $585
  5. Brunel Sicar (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $456
  6. John Bilas (Wilton Manors, FL) $365
  7. Patricia Conrad (Delray Beach, FL) $310
  8. Danilo Parada (Oakland Park, FL) $269
  9. Betty Davis (Pompano Beach, FL) $238
  10. Nace, Qarmout (Yonkers, NY) $215
  11. Dean Stevenson (Coral Springs, FL) $215
  12. Bobby Leff (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $215
  13. Ursula Buffa (Pompano Beach, FL) $195
Tournaments: With the turnout of this weekend's completed tournaments, today's event is one that should not be missed.  The $130 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack" ($3,000 GTD) begins at 3:00pm, and is in line to crush the guarantee.  The tournament is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and has registration open through Level 8.  While it shouldn't be in play, it is necessary to mention that there is a hard stop time on this event (11:30pm).

Promotions: The poker room doors open at 11:00am, with the high hand being awarded every (30) minutes.  The qualifying high hand for each half-hour will be awarded $100, with the promotion transitioning at 2:00pm.  From 2:00pm to 10:00pm, the high hand grows to $300, also awarded every (30) minutes (rollovers do not apply).

3:00pm: $130 No Limit Hold'em ($3,000 GTD)
  • Players start with 20,000 in tournament chips
  • Late and re-entries for the first (8) levels
  • Alternates and late entries will start with a full stack
  • Levels will last (20) minutes
