The players have reached the final table of the Win the Button event and beyond, as just 7 players now remain (Dean Cooke and Jean-Christophe Forest were eliminated in the first few hands).
The players in the Win the Button tourney are on their second break of the day, and after the first 9 levels of play, here are the current leaders in the tournament:

The players in the Win the Button tourney are on their first break of the day and with late registration set to close in just 8 minutes (at the end of the break), the total number of 65 runners is pretty close to the final number. Following the break we’ll publish a full list of prizes based on the official final number of players in the event.
Of those 65 entrants today, there are still 50 players alive in the tournament. It’s too early for anyone to have built up a commanding chip lead but we’ll get a few counts once players have returned to the tables.
Here are a few early shots of the field in the Win the Button tournament.
It’s only Wednesday, but at least for this week, that’s the beginning of the weekend here at Playground Poker Club – the Power Weekend! The first event has been underway since 12:00pm, which is a $70 + $10 NL Hold’em Win the Button tournament.
So far there are 42 players in the event but late registration is open until 1:30pm, so there’s still lots of time for players to jump in the action.
Good luck!
An action-packed bounty tournament in which half your buy-in goes to a bounty chip!
One entry and one re-entry allowed per Day 1. Re-entry until the end of level 6.
Win $25 for every player you eliminate.
