The final table has come and gone and with that another repeat champion. Paul Bosak hung in there until the end and then picked up the win with a pair of jacks in heads up play. Competition was lightened a bit with the absence of Joel “Straddles” Grant and the early departure of last season’s winner, Tyler “Willy Nilly” Gryte. He blamed his less than par performance on the always controversial new deck of cards that were being used that night.
Overall it was another great night with the guys. Big thanks to Amanda for a wicked Taco Dip and to Shannon for serving up my Spinach Dip and putting up with the noise all night.
Invited will go out for Season Six which will take place a Joel’s place. Thanks for another great season.

This one came down to quite a battle in the final 3. At one point I was up alot and after my AJ lost to Joel’s AK on a all-in I was short stacked I am sure. Pat hung in there going up and down in chips the whole time while I focused my revenge on Joel chipping away at him rather aggressively. Before you know it we are all pretty close in chips and I take Joel all and end up with trip J’s to take him out. Heads up I had Pat at least 3-1. He took a couple hands here and there and went all in with A-10 losing to a heart flush against my K9. It was a battle.
Saturday the 22nd is the final table. It will be here and I will send out an email with the time. If anyone has any requests let me know before the email goes out please.

This one went right to the wire with 5 guys still in for 2 and 4 hundred blinds. Then I started picking guys off. Pat, then George, then Bry, then Ty. Someone else should really start making these posts. Only one more regular season game left!

George wins! There were only five guys here though. One I knew wasn’t coming the other two should read the rules about calling if you can’t make it. Oh wait that’s common courtesy.

I think Bosak flopped a straight to take Pat’s AQ out of play and Pat with them. Oh wait that happens to someone every week so it’s hard to keep track. Somebody else should start writing these as I am really starting to slack off.

it seems like there are some rules to vote on but we couldn’t last night because George wasn’t there. It was a good game again this week. I think the TSN turning point might have been Bosak’s 7-4 taking out Pat’s A-Q. Of course he got the straight right on the flop! It came down to Joel and Al heads up. It was a long drawn out affair that Al took in the end with pocket 10’s.

This week was the halfway point so we decided to play a “knock-out style” awarding one extra point for every guy you take out. Bosak took Joel out in the first couple hands to earn an extra point but justice was served and he was taken out next. The hands were certainly Willy-Nilly after that with shuffled decks before the flop, Willy-Nilly calls instead of raises, fake raising, and chips in the cup holder. It was a dirty game to say the least and perhaps some rules will be made in the near future.

We got together a little early this week for Al’s draft. It was also our first game on the new table. Big thanks to all the guys for pitching in. You may have also noticed that the website is a little different. I wanted to make it a little more interactive so I am using wordpress so that we can all add comments. I will send out an e-mail with your username and password shortly. You can login right from the homepage.
This week around the new table I was out pretty early. Tyler took a beating early playing pocket 10’s twice. Once against aces and once against queens. Let’s just say I wasn’t the first one out again this week.
