Local player shines overseas
Apr 19, 2019, 5:13 PM
Local player wins at the Irish Open We always feel great pride when a Canadian player has success abroad. Brigitte Métivier, a regular at Playground, took down early this morning the €250 Ladies’ Event at the 2019 Irish Open. There were 70 runners in the tournament, but in the end, only Métivier was left, and she was able to scoop the Ladies’ Event trophy and the €4,610 first prize. Well done! The Lotus grants a 5-figure Jackpot Last Monday, Carmen N. came to Playground with her husband for some late-night fun on the Electronic Gaming Devices. She was playing one of our most popular games, Eternal Lotus, the game that holds the current record for the biggest EGD Jackpot awarded at Playground – $28,791.93. The lotus had a little surprise in store for Carmen. On the same spin, a perfect blend of gold coins and lotus symbols appeared […]

This week’s STEP qualifier did not have to invest a single dollar to earn his seat at MILLIONS North America.

A couple of tournaments later, he’s on the list of qualifiers for the $10,300 Main Event in May! He tells us about his road to MILLIONS and the toys (cars) he would buy if he wins big next month. Introducing… Ivan the Terrible. (More great content coming up on Playground’s official YouTube channel. Please subscribe!)

Mondial de la bière… it means Beerfest!
Apr 16, 2019, 2:51 PM
The Mondial de la bière, founded in Montreal in 1994, is a full-fledged international beer festival. The unique weekend-long tasting event provides a pathway from the art of local and international brewers to the taste buds of passionate and casual beer drinkers, and the 26th edition of the festival is held during MILLIONS North America, allowing all players to discover new and exciting concoctions! The event is once again held at Windsor Station in downtown Montreal (near metro stations Lucien-L’Allier, Bonaventure and Peel). It will be open to festival-goers from 11:00AM to 11:00PM, May 22 to May 25 – Wednesday to Friday. Admission is free, but to indulge in the main activity, you will need to buy a tasting glass and some coupons – they come in various packages, depending on how much discovery you plan to make. The festival bets on breweries that are not necessarily well-known, but have […]
partypoker closes 277 “bot” accounts
Apr 15, 2019, 1:32 PM
Last week, partypoker confirmed 277 bot account closures and $734,852.15 in redistributed funds between December 1, 2018 and March 31, 2019. The operation is conducted by partypoker’s Poker Fraud Team, said partypoker representatives, which is essentially “a collection of former poker professionals who are equipped with the necessary knowledge and expertise to investigate suspicious activity and aid partypoker in ridding the site of unscrupulous accounts.” The team works diligently to detect any suspicious activity on the tables, as well as investigate any suspecting player report. Suspicious activity can arise in the form of collusion between two or more players, or the use of bots or other prohibited software designed to give the offending player an unfair advantage. partypoker encourages all players who suspect foul play to report their doubts to info@partypoker.com, and promises to investigate all reports. partypoker is one of the oldest and most trusted online poker brands.

Road to MILLIONS – Episode 4
Apr 12, 2019, 5:36 PM
This week’s featured player is Playground’s very first tournament winner! He won the first tournament ever held in our club, 8 years ago. It was a $100 event, but he is no stranger to $10K buy-ins either. His first major was in 2009: he played a WPT event at Fallsview Casino Resort in Ontario. He has yet to make a big score in one of these monster tournaments, and hopes that MILLIONS North America will be it! He jumped in a STEP 1 satellite following a casual invitation from our tournament director. He couldn’t turn down such attractive overlay! The very same night, he played the STEP 2, got through, and played the STEP 3 satellite on the following day. He is here now, qualified, pumped up for MILLIONS in May! Introducing… Carlo Nini.
