All we ask is that you have fun, be kind, and please also show your support for the league with your upvote and donations.

Updates, News, and Notes

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

The cards were falling in Hoodish's favor on Monday night. He takes out @angelgarz in brutal fashion with a dominated hand

A massive hand in the @adsactly 20 SBD Monday Freeroll. After a juicy flop, everyone goes crazy and pushes their chips in the middle of the pot. @iabuse wins it and knocks out two players with aces and tens

All-ins around the table and @kingbum pairs his ace and queen to knockout @jsock's better pre-flop hand and @wisher

@kingbum strikes again after both players go all-in pre-flop. Bum's pocket fours boat up on the turn in the @followbtcnews 5 SBD freeroll

• Yesterday’s Winners:

@jsock won @homesteadlt’s 1.5 SBD Heads-Up Shootout, winning all four of his matches for a 1.01 SBD prize and a Tucket Ticket. Congrats!

In the @followbtcnews 5 SBD Freeroll, @run-the-bits (RTB) held off a strong late push from @hopfarmnc to win 1.80 chips and a Tucket Ticket.

Now in its second week, the @Adsactly/@AlexVan 20 SBD Tournament began at 6 PM CDT on Monday evening. @iabuse and Hoodish were dead even at the final table and decided to split the prize pool, giving them each 5.9 SBD.
