Friday, July 9th: Raminder Singh Finds Himself In A Familiar Place, With The Weekend Action Expected To Attract Big Numbers!

ICYMI: While Raminder Singh (Delray Beach, FL) calls himself a "poker amateur," his lifetime results would say different.  With over $1,400,000 in tournament earnings (and over 225 recorded results), Raminder has made a name for himself in the South Florida poker community.  

Singh headlined yesterday's $150 No Limit Hold'em "Double Green Chip Bounty" ($5,000 GTD), topping a four-way chop, and collecting a whopping (21) bounties in the process!  The tournament attracted a total of (125) entries, which equated to an official prize pool of $8,125 ($6,250 bounty pool).  Seventeen players would see a return on investment, with the results from the event listed below:

  1. Raminder Singh (Delray Beach, FL) $1,545
  2. Edward Russell (Pompano Beach, FL) $1,474

Tournaments: With the arrival of the weekend, comes the $150 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD)...the tournament that started this incredible "re-introduction" of the Isle Casino Pompano Park poker room.  The cards get in the air at 6:00pm, with players sitting down to starting stacks of 15,000.  Levels will last (20) minutes throughout the evening, with registration open through Level 8 (and the break that follows).




Promotions: From 10:00am (the minute the doors open) to 11:00pm, $300 high hands will be awarded every (30) minutes. These high hands must be aces-full or better, use both hole cards, and be the winning hand (in a pot that has at least $10).  The 11:00pm-Close period will then see $100 high hands awarded every (30) minutes.

In addition to the high hands, there is a "bonus" promotion in place, which offers $1,000 to the highest hand from the 10:00am-12:00pm time period.  If a player makes a straight flush in the 10:00am-10:30am qualifying period, and that is the best qualifying high hand from 10:00am-12:00pm, they will earn an extra $1,000 (in addition to the $300 they were awarded for the half-hour time period).
