Green Valley Ranch $10,000 Omaha Royal Flush Jackpot

Green Valley Ranch poker room will be awarding another $10,000 during the $35,000 Omaha Giveaway qualifying period through Dec. 31, 2006. Players who complete a royal flush hand while playing live Omaha win another $200 until the $10,000 jackpot is depleted.

The Great Hands Giveaway at all Las Vegas Station Casinos

The Great Hands Giveaway works a lot like bingo and relates to Texas hold'em games only. A board containing 25 squares (five rows of five squares each) is displayed in each of the Station Casino poker rooms. Each square has a value, (four squares represent straight flushes, one square represents the royal flush, and the rest are a random number of specific fours-of-a-kind and full houses). Full houses and fours-of-a-kind are valued at $50 each. Straight flushes and the royal are worth $200. Every time a specific valued hand is hit, the player presenting that hand is awarded the prize money and his or her name is placed in the corresponding square. The player to win the last square in each row (vertical, horizontal, or diagonal) receives another $500.00 bonus. If a player completes a row combination, such as a vertical and horizontal, or a verticle horizontal and a diagonal, he or she wins $500 for each. Whoever wins the final hand that blacks out the bingo-like Texas hold'em Great Hands Giveaway poker board wins an additional $500.

When the last hand has qualified and the prize money has been awarded, the names on the board are cleared and the 25 squares are given another set of random values.

The turnover for this promotion averages three completed boards, or 75 squares, per casino, per month.
