Hello Steemians and SPL Poker Players!

Updates, News, and Notes

It didn’t take long heads-up for @iabuse and I to hit a huge hand. After a pre-flop raise, @iabuse hits bottom pair and has the nut flush draw while I hit the queen-high flush. We get our stacks in after the turn and my straight holds up

No one believes @glennolua pre-flop and a three-way all-in results in a 90,000 chip pot, which gives him the lead in the Sunday 50 SBD

• Yesterday’s winners:

It was a wild one in the @rawdawg Dawg Pound winner-take-all 1-table freeroll. As you saw above, I was able to outlast the table for the 5 SBD prize. Thanks for hosting @rawdawg!

In the 2:00 PM CDT PLO8 .20 SBD tournament, @Sevendst19 beat @Tadas with a straight and the best lo hand. Congrats!

• Team Up Week 3 Recap:
  

What a tournament! The Sunday 50 SBD had 68 entrants and it was one of the most aggressive tournaments I’ve played in the Steem Poker League. I was lucky enough to make the final table but not good enough to finish at the top. @rafraf won after a great final table performance.

With two players on the final table (father and son!), West Coast Best Coast had the best week as a team with @jkms finishing a respectable 4th and OldDustMop finishing in 7th.
