A Jackpot on a $5/$5 PLO Table
Feb 22, 2019, 8:51 PM
Early Friday evening got a boost when the Omaha Bad Beat Jackpot was won on table 13. This is one of the “usual” PLO tables, and is often the site of some of Playground’s largest games – and when you add a Jackpot to that, it adds up to a lot of happy PLO players! There were seven players at the normally 8-handed table when the fateful hand occurred, and before cards were event dealt Hafedh B had juiced things a little bit by adding a $10 straddle after the blinds. Charles B then opened with a raise to $35 and there were two callers. Three players to the flop. Flop: Action checked around, and the turn came … There would be no more checking in this hand… Hafedh opened with a $75 bet, and Charles made the call. The third player in the hand to this point chose to […]
Plessis-Belair wins Event #3
Feb 21, 2019, 11:54 PM
During heads-up play, the players decided to make another small deal; instead of $400 going to 1st place, they agreed to re-adjust and leave $300 for 1st and $100 for 2nd. The two players battled back and forth for an orbit or two, and finally they were both all-in: Jonathan had and Normand had . Jonathan was happy to smash the flop, hitting 2 pair, but as seasoned tournament poker players know, in most all-in situations, there seems to always be a sweat. He was not happy to see the spade draw and wanted the dealer to keep it clean. The on the turn was a brick, but the on the river made a flush for Normand, and, all of the sudden, we had our champion. Event #3 Champion: Normand Plessis Belair, $1,715 Last hand of play 2nd place: Jonathan English, $1,500
A champion is crowned in the 8-Max Re-entry
Feb 20, 2019, 11:38 PM
An epic heads-up battle took place between Jean-Pascal Gauthier and Anish Sood to close out the action in Event #1 in the February 2019 Playground Power Weekend. Along the way, the two remaining players looked at the ICM chop numbers, but in the end, they decided to just play on. Anish was dominating up until the last hand before break, but with only 10 seconds to go before the break was to start, an important hand was dealt. Anish was on the button and looked down at and shoved. Jean-Pascal woke up with and, as expected, snap called! The Queens held and Jean-Pascal received a nice double-up, adding almost 300k to his stack. Returning from their last break, chips moved back and forth until Anish went all in with Big Slick. Jean-Pascal called, holding a hand that was clearly dominated: King high, 8 kicker. The dealer fanned out a King-high […]
MILLIONS North America: The Official Schedule
Feb 20, 2019, 3:44 PM
The marquee event of the year, MILLIONS North America, is nearly upon us! The series runs from May 13 to May 26 and hosts ten events, putting over $8,000,000 in value up for grabs. MILLIONS brings three tournaments with seven-figure prize pool guarantees: the Montreal Open, the MILLIONS North America, and the High Roller. These tournaments are complemented by seven side events and lots of satellites to provide options for players of all bankrolls. This year’s Main Event offers a $5,000,000 guaranteed prize pool and presents some important differences from previous editions. First, the tournament structure has been revised: there are now only two starting flights, which follow a next-day re-entry format. This means that players can fire, at most, two bullets at this premier event – 1 for each Day 1. Second, the buy-in has been increased to $10,300. We have introduced a series of STEP Satellites through which […]
The Secondary BBJ was hit Tuesday morning
Feb 19, 2019, 7:55 PM
This morning was bright and sunny, though a little chilly, but there’s nothing like a Jackpot to make a chilly day a little warmer and a sunny day a little brighter! The action that brought about the Secondary Jackpot was on table 4, which at the time was a $1/$2 table. Preflop, the action was limped around to Shawn S in the small blind, who raised to $16. There were two callers: Stephane S (utg+1) and Ryan W (cutoff). The dealer laid out the flop. Flop: Shawn led out for $20 and both of the other players made the call. Turn: Shawn led out once again, this time for $85. Stephane raised to $200 and Ryan came over the top with an all in raise to $374. The action was back on Shawn, who announced that he had to check his horoscope for advice – and made the call. Stephane […]
