Three players this week. Kathy took me out in the first 5 minutes with a pocket pair of aces. That gave a a big lead over Bruce, but the blinds were still low. Bruce was holding on at the first break. He had 1,591 to Kathy's 4,409. It ended 3 minutes after the break, when Bruce couldn't hit his double gut-shot straight to beat Kathy's pair of 9's. Good game Kathy!
TopOnly two players this week (I'm not surprised). It was Kathy and me in a heads-up battle. I took an early lead, but Kathy came back and had a chip lead of more than 1000 chips. I got a couple of good hands and managed to re-take the lead. Just before the first break she shoved with ace-high. I happened to have pocket kings and she couldn't catch the ace she needed. I won this one.
TopI couldn't make it to this one, but I heard there were 4 players and Jon won when he hit a queen on the river to suck out against Kathy's pocket 7's. That makes 3 in arow Jon. Nice!
TopSix players again! And we all made it to the first break again. Still 4 players left at the one hour mark. I went out a few minutes later. That left three players and gave Jon the championship (congratulations Jon!). Kathy ad the lead with 4,596. Kathy's lead evaporated and she went out 15 minutes later. Jon now had a huge lead (9.724) over Marv (2,276). A couple of hands later it was over. Jon had taken the game and the championship! Well done Jon!
TopSix players tonight! We all made it to the first break. There were 4 players left at the one hour mark. Still 4 players at the 2nd break. Three minutes after the break, Jon took out both Jim and Bruce to take a Monster lead (10,226) into heads-up with Marv (1,774). Marv tried, but he couldn't beat the monster stack. Good game Jon!
This give Jon the lead with only one game left! Bruce and I are within reach, but it's Jon's championship to lose.
TopOnly three players tonight. in fact, Kathy & I couldn't make it so I really don't know what happened during the game. I do know that Jim won, Bruce came in second and Jon took third. With only 3 players, no points were awarded toward the Championship. I have a 1 game lead over Bruce and Jon with only 2 games left. It'll be a close one. Good game Jim!
Top5 players tonight. We lost one player right at the first break. Jim went out 15 minutes later. That left me with a lead of 5,450 to Bruce's 3,780 and Jon's 770. Jon doubled up off Bruce just before the one hour mark. That gave him the lead with 5,354 to my 4,258 and Bruce's 388. Bruce went out a few hands later. That left me heads-up with Jon. He had 5,622 to my 4,378. It ended 20 minutes later when Jon hit a set of 3's to beat my top pair with top kicker. Good game Jon!
TopWe were up to 6 players this week. This time we lost two players before the first break. I lasted 15 minutes more then I was out. Kathy had the big lead with 7,066. Bruce was next with 3,573 and Marv was hanging on with 1,361. Just before the hour mark, Kathy hit a straight to bust Marv's set of queens. That left her heads-up with Bruce holding a lead of 8,587 to his 3,413. They were pretty much the same at the second break. Kathy had 8,522 to Bruce's 3,478. Things really changed after the break. Bruce won hand after hand and took the chip lead within ten minutes. Five minutes later it was over. Bruce had won two in a row. Good game Bruce!
Top5 players again. We lost one player before the first break. I went out about 5 minutes before the hour mark. That left Bruce with a lead of 5,387 to Kathy's 3,543 and Jon's 1,070. Kathy lasted 10 more minutes then Bruce took her out. That gave him a huge lead with 8,035 to Jon's 1,965. But, I've seen bigger comebacks. A few hands later and it was over. Bruce's ace had a better kicker and Jon couldn't recover. Nice game Bruce!
Top5 players again. This time everyone survived to the first break. Still four players at the hour mark. Jim went out about 10 minutes before the second break. I held the lead with 4,671. Jon was second with 3,986 and Bruce trailed with 1,343. Bruce lasted a few more minutes, then Jon took him out and took over the chip lead. He had 5,844 to my 4,156. I had come back by the second break and led 7,577 to 2,423. The lead changed hands several times over the next 20 minutes, but finally ended when Jon caught runner-runner to make a flush to bust my set of 6s.
Top5 players again. And we lost one before the first break. Kathy fell to Jon's pocket aces about 10 minutes after the break. With that win, Jon almost caught Bruce. Bruce had 4,890 to Jon's 4,039. Jim was biding his time with 1,071. Bruce extended his lead a few hands later when his pocket queens held against Jim's pocket tens. The score: Bruce: 7,108 - Jon: 2,892. Jon had come back and taken the lead by the hour mark. He held 5,334 to Bruce's 4,666. Still anyone's game. It didn't quite make it to the second break. Jon's pocket jacks held up and the games was over. It was a good night for pocket pairs (and for Jon!).
Top5 players again. This time we lost two players before the first break. That left me with the big stack (4,966). Bruce was second with 3,064 and Jon held third with 1,970. I busted out a few minutes later. Bruce took over the lead with 7,250 and Jon was still in third with 2,750. 15 minutes later it was over. Jon couldn't hit his straight to beat Bruce's straight. Good game Bruce!
TopBack to 5 players - including one we haven't seen in a while. We lost one player before the first break. There were still four of us at the one hour mark. I was out about five minutes before the second break. Lecia had the big stack with 6,175. Jon was healthy with 3,180 and Jim was hanging in with 645. Jim was out two hands later when his pocket 7's ran into Jon's set of 10's. Jon had moved up to 4,165 and Lecia had 5,835. Lecia took a ouple of big chunks of Jon's chips with some well timed hands, then her pocket nines held up to give her a nice "Welcome Back!" win. Good game!
TopDown to 4 players again. One player went out after only 15 minutes. That left 3 of us to finish up. Bruce had the lead with 3,607. I was second with 2,378 and Jon held third with 2,015. Things had changed by the break. Jon was still in third with 1,165. But I had taken the lead over Bruce with my 4,908 topping his 1,927. Of course, hands like this ROYAL FLUSH helped a lot. Jon lasted another 5 minutes. Then it was Bruce (2,102) and I (5,898) heads-up. The tide had changed by the hour mark. Bruce now held the lead with 4,812 and I was behind with 3,188. The tide turned again by the second break. I led again with 5,684. Bruce wasn't too far behind with 2,316. It only lasted a few hands after the break. Bruce couldn't hit his AQ to bust my pair of 5's. So I won another one!
TopFive players again this week. And again, we lost one before the first break. The remaining four held out until just before the second break (that's right SECOND break). The Jon eliminated two players with the nut flush to put him in the lead with 6,410 to Marv's 3,590. After the break, Jon picked up right were he left off - taking just 4 minutes to eliminate Marv and take his second game in a row. Good game Jon!
TopFive players this week(Yeah!). We lost one before the first break. We lost Jim 15 minutes after the break. That left the rest of us pretty even. Jon had a slight lead with 3,450. Bruce was just behind with 3,277 and I had 3,273. Bruce went out five minutes before the hour mark. Jon still had the lead with 5,235. I wasn't far behind with 4,765. It ended seconds before the second break when Jon hit his flush to beat my top-pair with top kicker. Good game Jon!
TopFour players again this week - strange thing is, it's usually a different set of 4. We all made it to the first break. We lost the first player 7 minutes before the first break. That left Jim with the lead (4,110). Kathy had second with 3,490 and I was struggling to hang on with 400. I went out a couple of hands later when Kathy's full house on the river busted my straight. She was now leading Jim. Her 4,520 to his 3,480. Kathy crippled Jim a few hands later when she hit a set to take all but 220 of his chips. He doubled up once, but the lead was too much and Kathy ended it before the hour mark. Good game Kathy!
TopStill stuck at four players. This time we lost a player about 5 minutes before the first break. That left me in the lead with 4,058. Jim was next with 2,572 and Jon trailed with 1,370. Jim got on a rush and took the lead before the break with 3,789. I dropped to second with 2,966 and Jon still trailed with 1,245. By the one hour mark I had re-taken my rightful spot at the top with 6,126. Jon had moved into second with 1,240 and Jim was now in last with 634. Jim was out a couple of minutes later and I was heads-up with 6,040 to Jon's 1,960. I was able to wear him down over the next 6 or 7 minutes. Then I had an ace with a better kicker when he went all-in. I managed to avoid his flush draw and took the win!
TopFour players again. Again, we all made it to the first break. This time Jon went out twenty minutes after the break. Again, Kathy had the big lead with 4,816. I was second (again) with 1,616 and Jim was in third with 1,568. Things changed quite a bit by the hour mark. Jim now held the lead with 4,493. I was still in second with 2,266, and Kathy had slipped down to 1,241. A couple of minutes later Kathy was out and I (3,617) was heads-up against Jim (4,383). We were still going strong at the second break. Jim (6,233) was a little stronger than I (1,767) was (OK - A LOT stronger). Ten minutes later it was over. I had top pair, but he had two overs and a flush draw. He hit an over and I was out. Good game Jim!

I was second with 1,025 and Jon was holding on with 240. Five minutes later Jon went out and I (2,770) was heads-up with Kathy (5,230). Five hands later it was over. I managed to win a couple of close double-ups to take the win.

Jim was settled in second with 3,421 and Kathy held the lead with 4,284. Kathy still led at the hour mark. She had 5,734 to Jim's 2,756 and Bruce's 1,510. She was still ahead at the second break, but the boys were catching up. She had 4,325 to Jim's 3,877 and Bruce's 1,798. But, things change quickly in no-limit and Kathy was out less than 10 minutes after the break. Bruce had made a huge come-back and led 9,660 to Jim's 340. It looked like back-to-back wins for Bruce. Jim had a couple of double-ups, but Bruce's lead was just too much. He did win his second in a row! Nice job Bruce!

Jim had 2,960 and I led with 5,170. Jim took out Bruce the next hand to even things out.

TopDidn't see tonight's game. It seems like I was in good company. Only three players and Jim managed to take them out one at a time (Bruce joined just as Jim knocked out Jon). Good game Jim!. (Sorry - no points, there must be at least 4 players)
