Friday, August 19th: Oleg Feldman Tops Thursday's Six-Way Chop, As We Head Into An Action Packed Weekend!!!


ICYMI:
Thursday's $200 No Limit Hold'em ($15,000 GTD) got underway at 6:00pm, and saw a steady stream of entries during the registration period.  Once the window to join the action closed (and the optional add-ons were included in the prize pool), the official prize pool closed at $15,270.  A total of (10) players were scheduled to reach the money, with action playing through the money bubble, and down to a six-handed final table.  The remaining group agreed to a chop, with Oleg Feldman (Boca Raton, FL) taking home first place money.  Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
  1. Oleg Feldman (Boca Raton, FL) $2,762
  2. Danilo Parada (Oakland Park, FL) $2,622
  3. Angelo Castaldi (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $2,497
  4. Jonathan Lasko (Hollywood, FL) $1,873
  5. Darryl Wettlaufer (Ontario, CA) $1,858
  6. Patrick Padovano (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $1,398

  8. Martin Borras (Sunny Isles, FL) $611
  9. Zaki Lichaa (Pompano Beach, FL) $519
  10. Floren Shkolnik (Hollywood, FL) $458



Tournaments: With the arrival of the weekend, comes 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 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.

In addition to the high hands, there is a "bonus" promotion in place, which offers $1,000 to the highest hand from the 9:00am-12:00pm time period.  If a player makes a straight flush in the 9:00am-9:30am qualifying period, and that is the best qualifying high hand from 9:00am-12:00pm, they will earn an extra $1,000 (in addition to the $300 they were awarded for the half-hour time period).

  • Players start with 12,000 in tournament chips
  • Levels will last (20) minutes 
  • Late and re-entries for the first (8) levels
