Friday, January 8th: "Weekend Swing" Returns, With Tonight's $150 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) Headlining The Weekend

Tournaments: The "Weekend Swing" returns, with tonight's $150 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD), the most popular tournament on the weekly schedule.  While the event has a $5,000 posted guarantee, it's been eclipsing the $10,000 mark almost each and every week.  The tournament is structured with 15,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and has open registration through Level 8 (and the short break that follows).  It's common that the tournament concludes in a deal, but if someone was open to playing things out, they could be in for a winning prize over $3,000!!!



Promotions: With the $300 high hand promotion running Sunday through Thursday, there is a short "break" on Friday and Saturday.  That being said, today's high hand promotion is our "standard," which means $100 high hands will be awarded every (30) minutes.  Qualifying high hands must be aces-full or better, using both hole cards, as one-card high hand no longer qualify.

  • Players start with 15,000 in tournament chips
  • Levels will last (20) minutes
