$2500 Sunday Fun-day Tournament
This is by far one of our best tournaments at Cool Hand. $20 + 2 buy-in gets you
1500 chips to start with, re-buys and add-ons are only $5 each and for that you
get 1500 chips.
If the buy-in is a little too steep for you, why not play your way into the tournament?
You can play one of our freeroll feeders to the daily satellites or buy in directly
to the daily satellites for only 10+1 Cool Points.
Yes, you read it right the first time, just 11 Cool Points will get you a shot at
your piece of a $2500 Guaranteed prize pool.
Triple Pocket Hold’em Poker Gold
Triple Pocket Hold’em Poker Gold is a game of skill and chance played between you
and the Dealer. It is based on the standard rules of Poker. It is played with one
standard deck of 52 playing cards that is shuffled before each game.
During each game, three pairs of pocket cards are dealt, face up. One pair is retained
by you and two pairs are retained by the Dealer. You have the option to hold the
first or second pair of pocket cards dealt. If you do not hold the first or second
pair of pocket cards, these are awarded to the Dealer and you are dealt the final
pair of pocket cards.
After the three pairs of pocket cards are dealt, the community cards are dealt.
The hands are compared and any winnings paid out. To win, your hand must beat both
the Dealer's hands.
The objective of Triple Pocket Hold’em Poker Gold is to complete the game with the
strongest hand using your two pocket cards. The payout is dependent on the value
of the hand you are holding. Good luck!

Q: Hello Dave,
I sometimes miss the start of tournaments that I’ve registered for a few days in
advance. Could you guys maybe set up something that’ll show me all the tournaments
I’ve registered for in advance?
Rgds,
Kevin
A: Hi Kevin,
You’ll be glad to know that we already have a feature that’ll make sure you can
easily keep track of all of the tournaments you’d like to play. By clicking on the
My Account button in the poker lobby, and then selecting the ‘View my Calendar’
option, you will be able to set reminders for yourself for the day, week or month.
Once you have the Calendar open, just right-click on the day you’d like to set the
reminder for, click on ‘Add event’ and select the time that you’d like to receive
a message reminding you of the event you don’t want to miss. You can even choose
how long before the event you would like to receive the message.
So as you can see, it’s a simple, easy to use tool that’ll make sure you never miss
another event again.
As always, if you have any questions mail me at
dave@coolhandpoker.com
