The top 128 players in the Thanksgiving Leaderboard faced off on Saturday to play for $21,713 in real cash prizes at CarbonPoker.
In a heads-up Grand Slam format, they duked it out for 5 hours, 6minutes and 21 seconds on the No Limit Hold’em tables. This capped of our successful 2009 Thanksgiving promo. It was banner month for SitNGos and players.
Each player came into the tourney with a unique starting stack, based on how they placed in the Leaderboard. As you will see below, whether you started with a big stack or a smaller one the most important part is getting into the event. Second place only started out with 5,731 chips — which was 42nd to begin with.
