Friday, November 11th: Neal Harding Wins Thursday's Tournament Outright, As We Enter A New Weekend Of Tournament Action

ICYMI: Thursday's tournament schedule saw just a small change, as the $200 No Limit Hold'em event's guarantee was adjusted to $12,000.  Cards were in the air at 6:00pm, and once the registration period closed, the tournament closed showed a total of (48) entries.  The official number was less than that needed to reach the posted guarantee, so the tournament ran with a small overlay.  Six players were scheduled to earn a piece of the prize pool, with action playing down to an outright winner.  Neal Harding (Delray Beach, FL) bested Mikhail Chykiliov (West New York, NJ) during heads-up play, earning $4,680 for the win.  Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
  1. Neal Harding (Delray Beach, FL) $4,680
  2. Mikhail Chykiliov (West New York, NJ) $2,760
  3. David Albertson (Coral Springs, FL) $1,680
  4. Krishna Collins (Tamarac, FL) $1,200
  5. Andrew Blake (Boynton Beach, FL) $960
  6. Jonathan Marcu (Boca Raton, FL) $720



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, $200 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 $599 to the highest hand from the 9:00am-3:00pm 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 $599 (in addition to the $300 they were awarded for the half-hour time period).
