The May Power Weekend at Playground Poker Club has kicked off with the beginning of Event #1, a $100 + $10 NL Hold’em 3 Lives Turbo tournament currently underway in the Tournament Hall. There are 40 players seated at the midway point through level 2, and players have until the end of the break following level 5 to join the fun.
The 3 Lives format is very fun to play – instead of a normal starting stack, players are given 3 “Life” chips to start play, each one worth 10K in chips (a total of 30K). Players can then use these as they wish during the registration period – they can redeem them all at once to start with a full 30,000 chip stack, or they can start with 10- or 20K and save life chips to be used as a rebuy.
We’ll be following this and all May Power Weekend Events here on the Playground Events Blog, so stay tuned for ongoing news coverage, photos, and more all the way though to early Tuesday morning when Event #9 wraps up!
Good luck!
