Tonight: Event 2’s Final Table!

In just 15 minutes the final table of ten players in Event 2, a $200 + $20 No Limit Hold’em Deepstack Re-entry tournament in the 2013 Playground Poker Fall Classic is set to begin.

How much? About three fifty…

The prize pools have been committed and/or paid out for the first 4 events of the Playground Poker Fall Classic, and so far the total of the prize pools awarded (Events 2 and 4 are still being played) adds to an impressive $349,685 – which is even more impressive considering that the largest buy-in for any event so far has been $220 (total).

We’ll be keeping a running tally of the overall prizes awarded in the Fall Classic – they’re only going up from here!

  • Event 4 has moved into level 13 and some of them are getting close to a first-round conclusion. Here is the current situation, table by table:

    • Table 67 – 3 players remain. Reuben Finkel is the chip leader on the table.
    • Table 32 – 5 players remain.
    • Table 30 – 3 players remain. Francis Trudeau is the chip leader on the table.
    • Table 27 – 2 players remain.
    • Table 26 – 3 players remain.
    • Table 25 – 5 players remain.
    • Table 28 – 5 players remain.
    • Table 29 – 5 players remain.
    • Table 31 – 4 players remain.
    • Table 66 – 6 players remain.

    The time when the first table finishes is significant because the blinds at the final table will start at those levels.
