Team Fun is Set for an “Edmonton Saturday Night”
2025 Pure Poker Tour Series #3 – Event #15: $220 Team Tournament ($200 + $20)
Date: Jul 26, 6 PM Blinds: 20 Minutes Starting Stack: 20k Late Entry: 9 Levels (~9:15 PM) Day 1 Ends: One-Day Event “Well the girls are out to bingo and the boys are gettin stinko, We think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday Night.” So goes the opening to the Stompin’ Tom classic “Sudbury Saturday Night”. It’ll be an Edmonton Saturday night, and both the boys and the girls will likely be playing some bingo, and definitely gettin’ stinko, as the Team game descends on the Pure Casino Edmonton poker room.
The action starts at 6 PM, and teams get 20k in chips to start. Blinds are 20 minutes long, and teams swap players every round. Five switch tickets let the teams either swap their own teammate in or out, or force another team at their table to swap (switch tickets can only be played in between hands). Entries are open for 9 levels, with the final chance to enter or rebuy at about 9:15 PM.
This is almost always way more party than poker, and I expect this game to be no different. Expect the poker room to be loud and the drinks to be flowing – the boys and girls are gettin’ stinko on an Edmonton Saturday night.

Team Fun is Set for an “Edmonton Saturday Night”
2025 Pure Poker Tour Series #3 – Event #15: $220 Team Tournament ($200 + $20)
Date: Jul 26, 6 PM Blinds: 20 Minutes Starting Stack: 20k Late Entry: 9 Levels (~9:15 PM) Day 1 Ends: One-Day Event “Well the girls are out to bingo and the boys are gettin stinko, We think no more of Inco on a Sudbury Saturday Night.” So goes the opening to the Stompin’ Tom classic “Sudbury Saturday Night”. It’ll be an Edmonton Saturday night, and both the boys and the girls will likely be playing some bingo, and definitely gettin’ stinko, as the Team game descends on the Pure Casino Edmonton poker room.
The action starts at 6 PM, and teams get 20k in chips to start. Blinds are 20 minutes long, and teams swap players every round. Five switch tickets let the teams either swap their own teammate in or out, or force another team at their table to swap (switch tickets can only be played in between hands). Entries are open for 9 levels, with the final chance to enter or rebuy at about 9:15 PM.
This is almost always way more party than poker, and I expect this game to be no different. Expect the poker room to be loud and the drinks to be flowing – the boys and girls are gettin’ stinko on an Edmonton Saturday night.
