Play has now begun on Day 2 of the tournament and an initial survey of the room confirms what the seating chart indicated – among the 169 players who started the day are an extremely impressive group of past champions of events at Playground Poker Club or at least players who have made deep runs in big events that have been hosted here.
And that’s not even mentioning other players who have proven their high level of skill elsewhere (in addition to here at Playground) like Ruben Perceval, Levon Dedayen, and Yannick Labattaglia.
Some of these talented players with Big-Event Playground successes in the past:
- Players Club member Jean-Philippe Piquette
- Grant Pazarka
- Real Cantin
- Rick Shamshoum
- Joey Boczek
- Jonathan Bussieres
- Michael Korovine
- Steve Pouliot
- Jonathan Poissant
- Levi Stevens
- Marc Guerbilsky
