It's About to Get Crazy Up in Playground Poker Club

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

[user270022]

The World Cup of Cards Event #7: $220 NL Crazy Pineapple Bounty is about to kick off at Playground Poker Club in Kahnawake, Quebec. The hold'em style variation features a guarantee of $15,000.

NL Crazy Pineapple plays like a regular hold'em game with a slight variation. Players are dealt three cards but once they reach a flop, they must discard one of them. The rest of the hand plays normally.

For each buy in, $150 will go to the prize pool and $50 will go towards your bounty. Bounties are awarded to a player who busts another player from the tournament. Players start with 20,000 chips with blinds increasing every 20 minutes.

Late registration will remain open until the end of the first break, following Level 4. Good luck to all players.
