Today in the SPL (5/24/18): Freerolls, Updates, and More from the Steem Poker League

Hello Steemians and SPL Poker Players!

It’s Thursday Y’all! There are 9, yes 9 freerolls in the SPL, so come and play them all! Also, please show your support for the league with your upvote and donations. We want the good times to keep on rolling.

Updates, News, and Notes

• The final table for You Pick It #6 has been finalized. Go ahead and get your Hoodish jokes ready (Celsius100 already roasted me) because he didn’t make the final table of his own tournament! Read who made it here, and please upvote to help increase the prize pool for You Pick It #7.
• And Now, A Look At Yesterday’s Action:

In the very first hand in the @followbtcnews 5 SBD Freeroll, @FarSeeR goes all-in in early position. With pocket aces, @philippekiene can't call fast enough, doubling up in the first minute of play

Hoodish and @manny80 go all-in after the turn. Hoodish's trip two's hold up and he doubles his stack

In the final hand of the @dontstopmenow freeroll, Gemini's pocket jacks avoid the flush as he beats @FarSeeR and wins the tournament

• Yesterday’s Winners:

Tuesday night’s 2 SBD HU Shootout was won by the aggressive @geekgirl. Nice victory!

Wednesday’s first tournament was the @dontstopmenow 10 SBD NLH Freeroll. @gemini took down the always unpredictable @FarSeeR for first place and 3.6 SBD. @davor27 (who is on a hotstreak) and Hoodish rounded out the top 4.

In another big tournament on Wednesday hosted by @pcste, @coinbelly flopped the competition into submission, beating out @kingbum and @sevendst19.

The always entertaining @followbtcnews 5 SBD freeroll was won by @davor27. @iabuse, who is also so hot right now, finished 2nd.

Wangchange was hosted late Wednesday night. Stay tuned for the results tomorrow and thank you to @mrwang for hosting!
