ICYMI: Saturday's $130 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) gave players another opportunity to better their standing on the Player of the Month Leaderboard, as we reach the halfway mark of November. Registration for the tournament closed with a total of (57) entries, which equated to an official prize pool of $5,200 (of which $500 was awarded to the chip leader at the end of Level 8). Action would play through the money bubble, and down to a heads-up final table, at which point Kevin Davis and Jimmy Lewis would agree to a chop (with Davis taking home first place money). Official results from the tournament are listed below, along with an updated Player of the Month leaderboard:
- Kevin Davis (Sunrise, FL) $1,586
- Jimmy Lewis (West Palm Beach, FL) $1,386
- Scott Krautman (Boca Raton, FL) $689
- Celso Leroy (Delray Beach, FL) $468
- Anthony Kern (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) $364
- Matthew Hansen (Saint Paul, MN) $286
- Herbert Souza (Boca Raton, FL) $234
- Ezequiel Carranza (West Palm Beach, FL) $187
Tournaments: This afternoon's tournament is getting a little upgrade, as we see the return of a guaranteed prize pool, in addition to the "final table finish" format. The $400 No Limit Hold'em ($50,000 GTD) event gets underway at 12:00pm, and is structured with 30,000 chip starting stacks. Levels will last (30) minutes throughout the entirety of the event, with registration open through Level 10 (and the break that follows). As mentioned, the "final table finish" is in place, meaning that regardless of where the prize pool closes, it will be paid out to only the top nine spots (those that make the final table). There is a $20,000 guaranteed first place prize, which is sure to attract a special crowd (so get there early)!!!
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.
