There's Still Time To Get Involved in the Playground Poker Fall Classic

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Looking for your own big time poker experience? The Playground Poker Fall Classic, featuring the World Poker Tour Montreal, runs now through Nov. 27. With events ranging from $150 all the way to $10,400, Playground Poker Club truly is Canada's premier poker destination.

The WPT Montreal kicks off on Nov. 20, featuring three Day 1s with next-day reentry format. Since its inception, the WPT Montreal has been one of the most popular stops on the WPT, featuring record fields and huge prize pools. Opportunities to win your way into Canada’s premier poker tournament are still available through a number of live satellites at the club.

On Wednesday, Nov. 19 there will be THREE satellites. Things will get started at 1 p.m. local time with a $150 reentry satellite with two seats guaranteed, and that will be followed by a $150 turbo reentry satellite at 4 p.m., also with two seats guaranteed. The blockbuster kicks off the same night at 7:30 p.m. — a $385 reentry satellite with 10 seats guaranteed!

There are additional $385 reentry satellites on Thursday, Nov. 20 and Friday, Nov. 21 at 7:30 p.m. — perfect for a player who wants to qualify for a second entry in the WPT. In addition to these multi-table satellites, players will have the opportunity throughout the Fall Classic to play in single-table sit-n-gos, and you can inquire at the brush desk for more information.
