  • There is just over 24 hours left until the 2008 GRAND FINALS begins. Who will join the ranks of our previous three champions: "stpboy" Shannon, "SirWatts" Mike, and "Kristy_Sea" Kristy??

    For those with nothing else going on that day, there will be a third table set up for side game action, and Mark has mentioned that he's bringing his XBox with him.

    The alternate list, as it stands is currently; "DataMn" Al (stupid allinforthecure), "Dirty Whore" Mark, "Quimby" Duane, and "sstar" Sean).

    For those showing up to see if they'll get in as an alternate your time won't be completely wasted, but I'll leave that cryptic for now.

    As players drop out, and the tournament winds down, the rest of the house is open to games, drinking and more poker. Come on out and celebrate the end of Season 5!
  • Shuffle up and deal has been called and cards are in the air. 25-25 blinds with a 20,000 starting stack.

    The only missing player is "Moose". If he doesn't call or make it in 30 minutes, "DataMn" Al is on deck to take his place.

    Good luck players!!

    Look here for live updates throughout the day!
  • Good luck and have fun Bitches!
  • I'll take over some of the commentary since Zithal is a little busy playing....

    Buzzzard has been having a rough day.

    Here's the first hand that I found....

    Flop comes down Kc 5c 2h

    Oragami bets, Buzzard calls

    Turn Th

    check check

    River 4h

    Buzzzard bets 3K. Oragami thinks, and then calls.

    Buzzzard has a busted flush draw (8c9c)
    Oragami has K3

    Buzzzard is down to 2600

    Mario is the early chip leader with 32K
  • 5 players in for 100 pre-flop

    Flop comes 5c 5h 2c

    Buzzzard goes all in for 2025

  • Buzzzard was clinging to life when the following happened....

    5 players were in for 600 pre-flop

    Flop comes 3 4 T rainbow

    Buzzzard was happy to go all in with his pocket fours.

    Unfortunately for him, Oragami was happy to call with his pocket tens!!

    No help came - and the Bristol Street player of the year was the first one out of the grand championship!!
  • Waltsfriend has been on fire... she is up to about 40K now.

    Reddington just lost a fair sized pot to PokerQueen. Tyson flopped 2 pair, but PokerQueen turned trips.

    PokerQueen is up to about 16000, while Reddington is down to about 7000.

    Peteski has lost a fair amount... he is down to about 10K.

    1 more level to go before the second break!!
  • 3 players (Itsame, Kristy_sea, and Hellmuth's Mole) in for 3000 preflop

    Flop comes 6d 6h 5c

    Kristy_sea checks, Hellmuth's Mole checks, Itsame bets 3000

    Kristy_sea calls 3000

    Turn comes down Ac

    Kristy_Sea bets 4000

    Itsame asks for a count... Kristy_sea says about 12000

    Itsame raises 12000 to put Kristy_sea all in

    Kristy_sea folds.

    Kristy_Sea is down to about 11500... Itsame is up to about 65000

    Level 6 is now starting... 30 minutes at 100/200 with a 25 ante before the supper break
  • Table 1 has been a lot more conservative than table 2. But here is a sample

    4 players in pre-flop for 600

    Flop comes Kd 9s Ks

    Zithal bets 600
    JoeheartsDi raises it to 2400
    Reddington folds
    Deepnet folds

    Zithal.. folds.

    Reddington even showed a King from his hand afterwords!!
  • With 2500 in the centre, Ineedanick goes all in, and stpboy insta-calls!!
    (stpboy is actually the one with his tournament at risk)

    stpboy has AcKc, while Ineedanick has Qc Qs

    Flop comes 4c Js 2c

    Turn is 6d

    River comes... 5c!!

    stpboy more than doubles up to 20850, while Ineedanick is down to about 3600
  • Just after finishing my writings on how slow table 1 is, the following hand came up...

    2325 in the pot pre-flop

    The flop comes 4h 5d Th

    Moose bets, and Deepnet goes all in.

    Moose calls

    Turn comes Ad, and the river comes Ac!!

    Ouch!
  • Ineedanick is out in 17th place.

    He has AhKh, and moved in. Kristy_Sea only needed to call a small amount more with her K8 and did so.

    She then proceeded to hit trip 8s
  • Table 2 is the table of death.

    Hellmuth's mole raised pre-flop, Mario reraised all in and Hellmuth's mole insta-called.

    Hellmuth's Mole shows pocket tens, and Itsame shows pocket kings!!

    Board comes out 3 6 7 Q 9
