Isle adds high hand promotions
The Isle is offering a high hand promotion on weekdays from Aug. 24 through Sept. 25.
One high hand will be awarded every two hours.
Cleverly, they're awarding higher payouts for the higher-limit games.
5/10 No Limit = $400
2/5 No Limit = $300
1/2 No Limit = $200
2-4 Limit = $100
Straight 2 = $50
1-2 Limit = $25
The usual rules apply, such as both hole cards must play and the hand must be at least a full house. By my take, it's the first high hand promotion there in a long time.
Do high hand promotions get you to play at a venue?
NICK SORTAL began playing 3-card "gut" and "Indian poker" on high school band trips, moved on to "night baseball" and "pass the trash" during a Dr. Pepper-infused midnight game in the 1980s at the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and now play in a regular neighborhood Hold 'Em game in Plantation. I have been given the assignment of writing about the gambling life in South Florida casinos for the Sun-Sentinel...which means sitting around watching poker on TV now counts as research.
