I placed 2nd in yesterday's night Betfair Poker tournament and won 168$. Not much I hear you say and I admit it wasn't an impressive figure. However, it is always a pleasure to compete with other Greek Poker players even if the prize pool isn't going to make any difference. Loose atmosphere, friendly talks although it gets rough from time to time since we Greeks have a big mouth occasionally. The tournament was the 2nd out of 4 which are organized by Betfair Poker every Monday titled: Greek $500 Guaranteed Tournament.

Translated from the greek page of Betting@Betfair:

"The tournament started at 23:00 local time with 25 participants. There were 20 rebuys total and 11 add-ons, offering a $560 prize pool. The tournament's duration was 2 hours and 27 minutes with 15 levels completed.

"Synetos", who appeared for the first time in the series, managed to beat 24 players and won $280. The site's friend "Jimmakos" (I write a couple or so posts in Betting@Betfair each week) in his first participation made it to the 2nd place applying a very good strategy and won $168. We were quite impressed to see "XALK1981" in the money once more, winning $112 for his 3rd place."

I maybe compete next Monday in the 3rd Greek $500 GTD Tournament by Betfair Poker but it's really early to say for sure. I'll keep you updated.
