ICYMI: Thursday's schedule saw the $180 No Limit Hold'em "Double Green Chip Bounty" ($5,000 GTD) for the final table (at least for the foreseen future), as May's schedule sees a new event in that date/time slot. The final "Double Green Chip Bounty" attracted a total of (30) entries, and had an official prize pool of $3,500 ($1,500 bounty pool). Four players were scheduled to reach the money, and after two in-the-money eliminations, a heads-up deal was agreed to, between Antonio De Araujo and Jonathan Jimenez. Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
- Antonio De Araujo (Deerfield Beach, FL) $1,320
- Jonathan Jimenez (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $1,200
- Daniel Bueno (Sunrise, FL) $595
- Darryl Wettlaufer (Mississauga, ON) $385
Tournaments: Due to technological issues, tonight's $160 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) tournament has been cancelled. That means that tomorrow's $130 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) will be the player's final chance to make a move on the leaderboard.
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).
