In about 20 minutes players will take their seats for Day 1c of Event 1 in the Playground Poker Montreal Festival as today’s schedule is a virtual duplicate of yesterday, with 2 starting days running back to back at 11am (Day 1c) and 7:30pm (Day 1d).
Yesterday’s action in Days 1a and 1b saw a total of 665 players enter the tourney. Saturday afternoon events typically attract the largest number of players all week, so between today and tonight’s flights the event is a lock to sail right past the guaranteed $100,000 prize pool!
While the tournament is on, there are also a ton of cash games in action – yesterday it peaked at 28 full tables at stakes from $1-$2 to $5-$5. There’s something for everyone at Playground Poker Club on days like this (including some PLO, by the way)!
Players who wish to join one or both of today’s starting days should be aware that the published cap on entries is 400 players, so although we’ll seat as many alternates as possible, it would be a great idea to get to Playground on time for their event to make sure they’re able to play.
