    There has been plenty of action early on at Day 1E of the Playground 100, partly due to the fact that many players are utilizing the unlimited re-entry option. With the ability to jump back into the action after losing your chips, the first two hours of these Day 1 flights is often filled with aggressive and risky plays. This structure often leads to players making higher bets early on, making quicker and looser calls, and for some, making early exits. Over on table 26 just now we saw an example of that.

    When we joined the hand the flop had already been dealt 7 of Hearts 10 of Diamonds 5 of Diamonds with three players in the hand. With the blinds at 100/200, Louis-Charles Levros opened with a bet of 2,500, quickly called by Michael Tremblay and Youri Parisien. A 2 of Hearts on the turn made two flushes possible, but it didn’t seem to matter to the players at the table. Another relatively large bet was placed, resulting in two more calls and a 4 of Hearts river.

    Louis-Charles shoved without hesitation, with Michael following suit close behind him. Youri bowed out, but when Louis-Charles flipped over his 7 of Diamonds 7 of Spades his trips didn’t faze Michael at all. He turned over a 9 of Hearts 10 of Hearts and the flush took the hand.

    Apparently it didn’t faze Louis-Charles either, as he is back for his third re-entry as we speak!
