We’ve reached the final in the opening event of the Playground Poker Spring Classic!
There are a few interesting stories leading up to this final table. For starters, Christien Beaudoin is riding what has been jokingly referred to as a “fairytale story”, as he was crippled early in the night to just one chip (T25,000), and has managed to rebuild his stack to make his way to the final table. Although he is on the short end of the leaderboard, he’s proven he knows how to play short-stacked poker.
Levi Stevens is in a similar boat, as at some point before the money-bubble in Day 2 he was crippled nearly to elimination. He has seen his stack drop to below the 2BB mark today as well, but has chipped up to give him a little room to manoeuvre.
Isham Yamani is on his second life-time final table in Playground Poker Club’s “The Wild $150”, and has also placed 20th in another one.
