Updates, News, and Notes

Welcome to another great week in the SPL! Here’s what’s happening in the Steem Poker League, including highlights from the massive 50 SBD Sunday Freeroll:

An all-in after the flop turns into a roller coaster of emotions as @lebekons’ nut flush turns into quad 2’s for @Depbill. Don’t feel too bad for Leb, he recovered to make the final table

Final table action. Both players all in before the flop and Tuck flops quads! #rigged
