Last Saturday was held at the casino de Lac-Leamy the tournament celebrities in which 150 people participated. Among these 150 people were 15 celebrities including Alain Choquette, Annie Dufresne, Carl Marotte and Laurence Grondin. The particularity of this tournament is that there was a bounty on each artist and Espacejeux gave $ 500 to the person who removed the artist and $ 500 to the cause represented by the artist. For example, Laurence Grondin has delivered $ 500 network relief animal when Stéphane v. has eliminated it.
Despite $ 550 buy-in (what is relatively a good investment for the average player), 150 seats available for this tournament were already taken two days before the start of the tournament.
Danny T. finished in 5th position for $ 3255, Steeve G. in 4th place for $ 3999, Michel B. in 3rd position for $ 5812, Denis R. in 2nd position for $ 8370 and finally, Kevin L. aka PetitCanard on Espacejeux and on our forums has finished in 1st place for the sum of $ 11.625 + 2 bounty $ 500 each! PokerCollectif team congratulates PetitCanard for the win!
