Event 7 just 2 hours away
2013/09/25 5:55pm by
The “Deepstack Turbo” format is a favourite at Playground Poker – all of our regular noon tournaments use this format and for the first 2 years we were open it was the standard – and very popular – Wednesday night tournament. Fifteen minute levels, 30K starting stacks… there’s no time to mess around in this one! So, as we say in Quebec, “attache ta tuque…”
Cards are in the air for this one-day event at 8pm tonight. There are already almost 45 players registered so if you want to play tonight it’s time to think about coming out to Playground!

Event 5 Numbers
2013/09/24 9:50pm by
Pot Limit Omaha is growing in popularity but still, PLO events don’t get as many runners as Hold’em events. That being said, the turnout for Event 5 was very solid: late registration and the rebuy period are over and the tournament saw 86 players start the night with 20 rebuys, which created a prize pool of $10,282!
