ICYMI: Monday's $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($10,000 GTD) has peaked player's interest for different reasons, one of which is the healthy payouts offered each week. If the tournament is played down to an outright winner, we are looking at a first place prize north of $15,000 (which is unheard of in a single-day recurring tournament). When the tournament is chopped, like it was last night, there is the ability for everyone involved to walk away with nice scores.
Yesterday's tournament saw registration close with (183) entries, and an official prize pool of $38,430. Once the final table bubble burst (which was also the money bubble), the remaining players agreed to a chop, with the official details of the deal listed below:
Tournaments: The action for the $130 No Limit Hold'em "Monster Stack" ($3,000 GTD) gets underway at 3:00pm, with another great crowd expected. The tournament is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and has registration open through Level 8 (and the break that follows). Results from the event will be posted tomorrow morning, in Monday's blog update.
ICYMI: The tournament numbers at the Isle Casino Pompano Park have been super impressive as of late, with last night's $150 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) continuing the trend. The tournament attracted a field of (149) entries, which equated to a prize pool of $17,135, over three times the posted guarantee. Seth Medoff (Pompano Beach, FL) is a name that has been listed on the blog with frequency (over the past few months), having hit his tournament stride. He topped a five-way deal that ended last night's action, earning $2,791 for his efforts, along with 24.27 leaderboard points. When you add those points to those earned the night prior, you find Medoff atop the July leaderboard (with a long ways to go). Official results from last night's tournament are listed below:
Tournaments: Saturday's 6:00pm tournament is one of the most popular on the schedule, as it offers an incredibly affordable buy-in, that always sees some great returns. The $100 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) event has consistently crushing the posted guarantee, as the prize pool reaches five-figures on a weekly basis.
The tournament is structured with starting stacks of 12,000 chips, and levels that last (20) minutes throughout the event. Registration is open through Level 8, allowing for almost three hours of play, prior to the window closing for the night.
Promotions: From 10:00am (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.
6:00pm: $100 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD)
ICYMI: When this past Monday's $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($10,000 GTD) had a record-breaking field, it looks like it was just a sign of things to come. First up on the July tournament scheduled, was the $150 No Limit Hold'em "Double Green Chip Bounty" ($5,000 GTD). With just over half of the buy-in going towards the prize pool (one-third goes to bounties), the idea of eclipsing $10,000 seemed to be a stretch. We had seen Thursday events come close to that number, but last night's installment had a prize pool that finally eclipsed the five-figures.
Registration for the event closed with a total of (172) players, and had an official prize pool of $11,180. A total of (22) players would earn a piece of the prize pool, with the evening's action ending in a seven-way deal. Isle Casino Pompano Park tournament veteran Robert Leff took home first place money in the deal, and quickly goes to the top of the monthly leaderboard. Official results from the tournament are listed below:
Tournaments: With the arrival of the weekend, comes the $150 No Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD)...the tournament that started this incredible "re-introduction" of the Isle Casino Pompano Park poker room. The cards get in the air at 6:00pm, with players sitting down to starting stacks of 15,000. Levels will last (20) minutes throughout the evening, with registration open through Level 8 (and the break that follows).

ICYMI: Players in the South Florida poker community already knew how good the $250 No Limit Hold'em "Final Table Finish" ($10,000 GTD) was, but last night the event went to new heights. The tournament attracted a record breaking field of (190) entries, and had an official prize pool of $39,900. Those numbers meant that first place was scheduled to walk away with over $15,000, a number just unheard of, for a recurring tournament.
With the payouts so top heavy, it was no surprise to see the tournament conclude in a multi-way chop, with the top six players all walking away with over $4,099. Andre Bryan took home the lion's share of the chop, earning $9,353 for first place. The leaderboard points that came along with the finish were significant, but not enough to see him crack the top ten. Official results from last night's event are listed below:
