Today in the SPL (5/15/18): Freerolls, Updates, and More from the Steem Poker League

Hello Steemians and SPL Poker Players!

Taco Tuesday! Bring your appetite for some poker chips! Please also show your support the league with your upvote.

Updates, News, and Notes

• Yesterday’s Action – Over 25 SBD was given out thanks to our sponsors and you for supporting the league:
  

  
  
  After going all-in, @Newtreehints sees his top pair and top kicker slowly fade away as @Philippekiene lucks into the wheel (A-5 straight) to stay alive in the tournament
  
  
  Kingbum takes the lead and then finishes off @PhilippeKiene with the ace-high hand
  
  Hoodish would like you to think he always wins with skill, but the truth is, sometimes he’s just really lucky. A crazy runout gives Hoodish the best hand with two pairs and an ace, making @Krusper’s pocket eights worthless in the 5 SBD @followbtcnews freeroll

• Yesterday’s winners:

In the 1:30 PM @Homesteadlt 1.5 SBD HU Shootout (16 Players) I had an easy time with the field until I ran into Krusper in the final round. Congratulations to @Krusper on his victory and 1.01 SBD prize.

In the 5 SBD @Followbtcnews freeroll, @Kingbum outlasted @Philippekiene in a heads-up battle while I was busted in third. Congrats on a fantastic day of poker @Kingbum.

@KingBum showed why he is the king of the bums with a great victory in the brand spanking new @Adsactly 20 SBD Monday Freeroll. Please make sure to follow @Adsactly and @AlexVan and show him some love for his support of the SPL!
