Event #3 ended up being the first Short Deck tournament at the Compound. It attracted 17 players and people either loved it, or didn't realize they loved it yet.
Current Player of the Year leader, EdTheTed, was kind enough to bust on the points bubble, allowing the rest of us a chance to maybe catch up to him. King Mob Dave found himself on the short stack with 5 left and ended up being the Bubble Boy.
SeekTheGrail and labeach2002+1 Sam ended the night in the money in 4th and 3rd, while the defending PoY champ, labeach2002 attempted to overcome a large chip deficit against the chipleader for a good chunk of the final table, and our Short Deck Champion, Zithal!
For the Player of the Year race, Zithal's win puts him in 2nd (becoming the only player to earn points in all 2019 events so far), while the defending PoY Champ labeach2002 jumps up 6 spots to #3.
