21+3 blackjack: how to play the popular blackjack side bet

Day 3 Survivors

At the end of Day 3, the money bubble had burst, and just 1,299 players remained. Unfortunately, more than half – eight to be exact – of the Team 888poker members who began the day failed to make the money.

Sadly, one of those to fall was Abernathy, who lost in one of the most memorable hands of the tournament. It took place in Level 11 (1,000/2,500/2,500) when she raised to 5,500 with the K♥K♠ and Mike Gao three-bet to 22,000 with the K♦K♣.

Abernathy moved all-in for 110,000, and Gao wasted little time making the call.

It looked as if the duo would split the pot, but the Q♦5♦3♥ flop gave Gao a freeroll to running diamonds. Well, it was bad luck for Abernathy as the 4♦ appeared on the turn followed by the 9♦ on the river to give Gao the flush and eliminate the 888poker Ambassador.

In the next level, Yuval Bronshtein raised to 7,000 in early position and Brazil’s Thiago Pirani, an 888poker qualifier, three-bet to 47,000 from the big blind after two other players had limped. Bronshtein four-bet to 110,000, the other two players folded, and Pirani jammed.

Bronshtein called off with the Q♦Q♣ only to see Pirani roll over the K♣K♠. The board ran out a clean 4♦2♦6♥8♣3♣ and Bronshtein hit the rail.

Meanwhile, Pirani went on to bag over 1.1 million, by far the biggest stack among the surviving 888poker team.

FAQs

Can I watch traditional sports on Twitch?

Despite being primarily an eSports platform, streaming professional sports on Twitch was recently introduced as the company attempts to branch out and stay ahead of the competition. Viewers can watch streams from the channels of football clubs like Real Madrid and Arsenal, while the relaunch of the TwitchSports channel makes it easier for users to find sporting events from the NBA, NFL, Premier League, Champions League, UFC and others across the platform.

How much data does Twitch use?

One hour of Twitch streaming in the average 480p quality uses up 700 MB of data. A high-quality 720p stream requires 900 MB per hour, while watching your favourite gamer play in 1080 HD takes 1.5 GB per hour of streaming.

What is the best time to stream on Twitch?

It’s hard to determine a general best time to stream, as this depends on various factors. But streaming from 7 to 11 in the morning (in your timezone) should give you less competition to fight off.

How do I find out how many subscribers a channel has?

Since Twitch only shares streamers’ follower counts publicly, the number of subscribers cannot be found on a channel page. If you’re interested in a particular streamer’s subs, you should try tools like Twitch Tracker.

How do I get viewers on Twitch?

Getting your first viewers on Twitch can take some time. What beginners can do is get friends and family to subscribe, promote themselves on social media, or stream during peak hours. Using chatbots or co-streaming can also help boost your viewer count.

Who has the most followers on Twitch?

Richard Tyler Blevins, commonly known as Ninja, has the highest count of Twitch followers. He is currently followed by 16.8 million people.

How do Twitch streamers make money?

Today’s top streamers earn money through subscriptions, donations, various partner and affiliate platforms, as well as Bits – a virtual currency that viewers ‘cheer’ with, earning streamers $0.01 per Bit. Twitch stats show that some gamers combine Twitch incomes with their professional gaming earnings from tournament prizes and sponsorships.

Day 1 Survivors

From the 888poker Team, two dozen survived their Day 1 flights. Unfortunately, among the eight that did not were Guilherme Benatto, Alfie Indira, back-to-back $50,000 Poker Players Championship winner Daniel Cates, and Brazil’s Vivi Saliba.

888poker Ambassador Sam Abernathy was at-risk early on Day 1a. According to PokerNews live updates, she was heads-up on a flop of J♠3♥10♥, and she bet 6,400 from the small blind.

Her opponent, who was on the button, called and the 10♠ paired the board on the turn. Abernathy checked, her opponent bet 15,000, and Abernathy jammed for 27,000 total.

Her opponent snap-called with the A♥Q♥ for straight and flush draws but was drawing dead as Abernathy rolled over the J♦J♣ for a full house.

The meaningless 5♦ ran out on the river, and Abernathy shipped the double.

Here’s a look at those that made it through each flight with their associated stack:

1 – Jason Somerville

While he may be semi-retired, Somerville may be the player who started the Twitch streaming trend in poker. He moved his Run It Up show to the site in 2014 after running the brand as a bankroll challenge.

Run It Up’s goal originally had been to turn $50 into $1,000 via playing online poker. On Twitch, that evolved into a complete poker brand that built on that concept.

Somerville quickly became the biggest streamer on Twitch and even sold Run It Up merchandise.

Somerville is quite a poker player, and viewers enjoyed his personality and insight into the game. Despite streaming less in recent years, the show’s archives remain popular and Run It Up still has 230,000 subscribers.

Same Game Parlay

The 888 sportsbook has a very sophisticated bet builder tool in most countries. You can use it to roll a number of same game selections into a single wager in a bid to generate a large profit. It is available on a few sporting events at the 888 NJ sportsbook, but some of the options are limited, so we should see this function improve for U.S. bettors soon.

21. Syndicate, Mongraal, and SovietWomble are some of the top UK Twitch streamers.

(Socially Powerful)

Straight out of Manchester, Tom Cassell and his streamer alter ego Syndicate now have 3 million Twitch followers. He began his streaming journey back in 2016, mainly broadcasting games like Minecraft and Call of Duty.

Kyle ‘Mongraal’ Jackson is a British gaming prodigy with 2.7 million Twitch followers at only 15 years of age. He earned a qualification in the Fortnite World Cup in 2018 and secured a cash prize of $375,000.

Though his Twitch handle doesn’t sound very British, SovietWomble gained popularity in the UK and worldwide by playing a variety of video games and through his ‘Random Bulshittery’ series. The Brighton-based streamer can now boast over 1.3 million followers.

How Long Does it Take to Withdraw Money from 888sport?

Withdrawal times vary depending on the payment method you choose. An 888Sport PayPal withdrawal will take 4-5 business days, as will a Play+ transfer. An ACH bank transfer will take up to six business days, and a check can take even longer. Read our 888Sport review to learn more about the various payment options you can choose from and the timeframes involved with each method.

888 Sportsbook Customer Support

Customer service is a slight weakness for 888Sport. It does provide customers with a comprehensive and well-written FAQ section, but if you cannot find what you are looking for, you will need to click “Contact Us.” You will then be presented with an online form to fill out, which sends a message to the 888Sport contact email team upon completion. You then must wait for an agent to respond. It often takes just 30 minutes or so, but it can be slower at certain times of day. The best online sportsbooks offer 24/7 customer service via live chat and a toll-free phone number, so this is an area that needs improvement for 888.

4. There were 101,294 active Twitch channels in July 2021.
