- The third of four events at the Station Poker Classic is now in the books. After more than 15 hours of poker, Chris Wallmuth was the player with all the chips at the end. The Show Lounge at Casino Regina was host to 218 entries in the third event of the series. That put $156,960 into the prize pool to be split between the top 22 finishers.
- Mar 23, 2018 The second event at the Station Poker Classic is in the books and Darrel Marsden was the winner of his first-ever Casino Regina championship ring. Marsden had to make his way through a field of 203 players over about 15 hours of poker action. It took about nine hours for the tournament to play down to the money.

It took about nine hours for the tournament to play down to the money. It was the winner of Event #1, Toby Wu, who burst the bubble in a blind-on-blind hand with Justin Skimanis, and it was another two hours of play before the final table was set. Going into the final table, the stacks looked like this:
| Seat | Player | Chips |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lee Clark | 174,000 |
| 2 | Randy Trautwein | 120,000 |
| 3 | Ethan Ellis | 155,000 |
| 4 | James Boyd | 154,000 |
| 5 | Darcy Reaney | 178,000 |
| 6 | Thomas Taylor | 291,000 |
| 7 | Len Sepke | 224,000 |
| 8 | Darrell Marsden | 521,000 |
| 9 | Mike Bakeman | 112,000 |
| 10 | Senad Selimanovic | 73,000 |
It would take another three hours of poker for Marsden to make it through the final table to heads up, where he stared across the table at one of western Canada's rising stars in the poker world, Thomas Taylor. Taylor came into heads up with the chip lead, but Marsden was able to claw some chips back after doubling with a dominating ace, and then again when he called off Taylor's ace-high all-in bet with just a pair of sixes and a five kicker.
That gave Marsden the chip lead and he never looked back. He took down the title when his pocket jacks held up against Taylor's queen-high, earning himself $33,952. Below is a breakdown of the results of the final table.
