LET THE CRAZY-NESS BEGIN
10 months ago, the Casino de Spa and APAT hosted the very first Crazy Pineapple tournament; and since then the event has become more and more popular.
Back then Didier De Swert defeated 42 other players; the following tournaments in Namur were won by Arno Cattoor (59 entries) and Maxime Leroy (60 entries).
Further improving the number of entries will not be easy (as the Casino de Spa is not that big of a poker casino as Namur), but we should be able to beat the field in the inaugral Spa tournament.
We started the tournament with 30 players; and there are 2 hours of late registration. Players receive a stack of 8.000 chips with blind levels of 20 minutes.
Familiar faces in the event:

Plus we have an Amateur World Champion in our midst. Philippe Henze won the Heads Up Championship Bracelet in London this year by defeating Rieuwert Fleer after an exciting final. He will also play tomorrow"s Team Event!
