Tuesday, July 5th: Ivan Ruban Introduces Himself To The Tournament Crowd, Assuming Top Spot On The Leaderboard

ICYMI: Monday's $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($20,000 GTD) happened to fall at the end of a big holiday weekend, so it's no surprise to see that the attendance was not what it usually is.  Registration for the tournament closed with a total of (78) entries, meaning there would be a small overlay (covered by the poker room).  As per the "Final Table Finish" format, the top nine spots were scheduled to earn a piece of the prize pool, with official results listed below (along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard):
  1. David McMahon (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $5,058
  2. Ivan Ruban (Russia) $4,712
  3. James Bomar (Wellington, FL) $3,830
  4. Seth Medoff (Pompano Beach, FL) $1,400
  5. Scott Levitt (Delray Beach, FL) $1,400
  6. Adam Wolfe (Fridley, MN) $1,000
  7. Ian Cohen (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $1,000
  8. Roni Zelichonok (Miami, FL) $800
  9. Edward Medoff (Margate, FL) $800



Tournaments: Tuesday's tournament schedule now boasts the $80 No Limit Hold'em ($4,000 GTD)...a new event that replaces the $160 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD).  The cards get in the air at 6:00pm, with players sitting down to starting stacks of 12,000.  Levels will last (20) minutes throughout the evening, with registration open through Level 8 (and the break that follows).  At the end of registration, players will have the opportunity to add-on for $40 (receiving an additional 15,000 chips).






Promotions: From 9:00am (the minute the doors open) until 12:00pm, there is a new promotion in June, offering boosted Early Bird High Hands.  The high hand at the top of the hour (:00) will be awarded $599, while the high hands at the bottom of the hour (:30) will be awarded $300.  From 12:00pm 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.
