Monday, April 25th: "Final Table Finish" Offers Valuable Player Of The Month Points, As Well As Healthy Payouts!!!

ICYMI: Sunday's $400 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD) continues to see great turnouts, with yesterday's tournament almost doubling the posted guarantee.  Registration for the tournament closed with a total of (102) entries, which equated to an official prize pool of $35,496.  A total of (13) players were scheduled to reach the money, with action playing through the money bubble, and down to a three-handed final table.  At that point, a deal was agreed to between the final three players, each of which walked away with at least $6,000.  Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
  1. Luis Dominguez (Miami, FL) $8,089
  2. Athanasios Polychronopoulos (Delray Beach, FL) $7,475
  3. Aldring Gomez (Hollywood, FL) $6,000
  4. Akeelo Rhoaden (Miami, FL) $2,662
  5. William Beasley (Davie, FL) $2,077
  6. Eric Siegel (Melville, NY) $1,659
  7. Walter Buss (Pompano Beach, FL) $1,411
  8. Philip Whitaker (Miami, FL) $1,225

Tournaments: At 5:00pm this evening, the $250 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD) "Final Table Finish" returns, with a little wrinkle.  This particular tournament had such a good structure, that the final table action ran into the closing time of the poker room (players are then faced with chopping, or bagging for a Day 2).  To keep that from occurring, there will be some slight changes moving forward.

The event will be structured with 25,000 chip starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and open registration through Level 8 (and the break that follows).  The new format-wrinkle comes into play when discussing payouts, as the tournament will pay out just the final table, regardless of how many entries.  Exact payout percentages are as follows (final tables are now nine-handed):
  1. 40%
  2. 18%
  3. 10%
  4. 7%
  5. 7%
  6. 6%
  7. 6%
  8. 3%
  9. 3%
Promotions: From 9:00am (the minute the doors open) until 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).  From 11:00pm until close, $100 high hands will be awarded every (30) 
minutes.




5:00pm: $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($10,000 GTD)
  • Players start with 25,000 in tournament chips
  • Late and re-entries for the first (8) levels
