Today in the SPL (6/2/18): Freerolls, Updates, and More from the Steem Poker League

Hello Steemians and SPL Poker Players!

It’s Saturday, but don’t worry, you can drink and play poker at the same time. While you’re enjoying the fun, please also make sure to support the SPL with your upvotes and donations.

Updates, News, and Notes

• Our biggest news of the day, if not the year, is that we have crowned the Player of the Month! It is…wait for it…Hoodish! For the third month in a row I am very proud to represent the SPL with this acknowledgement of my inability to stop playing poker in the SPL. Thank you everyone, and by everyone, I mean those of you who give back to the league and help to keep us going!

• And Now, A Look At Yesterday’s Action:
  

  

@Loquedog21 was pushing all-in left and right. Called by @yazp, Loque finds a lucky 10 on the river to knock @yazp out of the tournament

Before the flop late in the @followbtcnews 5 SBD freeroll, @arcaneinfo pushes all-in on the button. Hoodish makes the call and Arcane flips over 53 offsuit. Hoodish pairs his queen and wins the big hand

• Yesterday’s Winners:

In the Friday edition of the @followbtcnews 5 SBD Freeroll, @loquedog21 bluffed his way right past me with take first place and 1.8 SBD. Congrats jerk!

In the brand new @curie 20 SBD, the battle for the 7.20 SBD first place prize came down to @bethalea and @celsius100. In a win for all of mankind, @celsius100 took @bethalea down for the victory.

The late-night @potplucker 3 SBD tournament went on a little past my bed time. Stay tuned for the results tomorrow. Thanks for hosting Pot Plucker!
