In keeping with the flood of bad beats over $100,000, Gulfstream's hit last week for $107,711.

The winning player had four eights; the loser four fours. Both declined to be identified.

The big winner (loser) received 50%, or $53,855. The hand that beat him received 30%, or $32,313. The remaining 8 players at the table received 20%, or $2,692 each

Meanwhile, Gulfstream is having some success with a "turbo" sit-and-go, a winner-take-all that goes quickly. The sit-and-go died somewhat after last July 1 when the cash limit became $100, so it's good to see it afloat again.

Overall, card room gross receipts are chugging along, according to the latest state figures. They've crossed $3 million, about 3 times the amount of Mardi Gras, but still only about half of Palm Beach Kennel and The Isle.

They've also even with Flagler, the only card room doing much in Miami-Dade.
