The Final Event of the World Cup of Cards, Event #28: $330 8-Max Bounty
The final event of the World Cup of Cards at Playground Poker Club is upon us. The field should be huge for this $330 No-Limit Hold em $100 bounty tournament.
Traditionally the last tournament of any series at Playground Poker Club, the dealers, and staff that are not working the final day are allowed to play. There has been a buzz about this tournament for the last few days. Whether it's because it signals the end of the series and a return to somewhat normal hours, or whether it gives them a chance to knock out their friends, no one cay say — it's likely a combination of both.
PokerNews will be here until the very last hand of the festival, bringing you all the news, updates, and photos. Follow @pokernews on Twitter for live updates, Periscope broadcasts, and more. Also, follow PokerNews on Facebook and Instagram.
