There are two tournaments running at the Playground Poker Montreal Festival tonight, with Event 6 that started a few moments ago, and Event 7 which is just about ready to begin. Event 7 is a Mix No Limit Hold’em and Pot Limit Omaha tournament, with a buy in of $100 + $10 and a starting stack of 20,000. The blind levels are of 20 minutes, and the game will alternate at every level between the two formats. Play will be 8-handed throughout the night, with a final table made up of 9 players, and of course the winner will be going home with a Playground Poker Montreal Festival champion’s bracelet!

Good luck!
