Wednesday, August 24th: Corbett And Solov Chop Tuesday's Tournament, As Players Focus On Weekend Action To Better Leaderboard Standing!!

ICYMI: After two days of larger buy-in tournaments, Tuesday's schedule saw the return of the $80 No Limit Hold'em ($4,000 GTD) event.  The trend of surpassing the posted guarantee continued (for this event that runs and Tuesdays and Fridays), as registration closed with a total of (68) entries.  Once the optional add-ons were included in the prize pool, the official number closed at $5,140 (which was scheduled to be paid out across nine spots).  The evening's action would play down to a heads-up final table, with a deal eventually agreed to between Michael Corbett (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) and Jerrold Solov (Pompano Beach, FL).  Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
