  • I'm glad you like it Braad. The clean up is still going one because I had to work today. It took 6 hours and 2 minutes of poker to find a champion with over an hour of heads up play.

    1. Shawn D. $300
    2. Braad (TwoThree) $187
    3. Welshman Mark $131
    4. Dwaine $75
    5. Acid Joe $56

    Also the forums own Moose04 was at the final table and former champion KGB Bobby made a final table appearance. 21 players in all showed up. Thanks to everyone for a great day. There was only 9 rebuys including myself very late in the tourney as I made a desparate attempt to finish higher than 5th. It almost worked until Mark won an all in that would have moved me up a position at least.
  • Yeah Joe, a great event...
    I've never seen so many pocket rockets pop up, just one after another at table 2 (that was after the first break)
    Already looking forward to another tourney...

    Hope to see you all there,
    k :c:
  • Well organized, great atmosphere, tasty snacks, good time had by all.
  • Thanx ACDC and Moose. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. And yes ACDC I think there was like 7 or 8 sets of rockets within 25 hands or so. I know I had a set and it was the 4th to be seen at the table. That table 2 was just a rocket magnet for quite a number of hands.
  • Oddly everyone at table 2 got to see the rockets but me! best I saw was Q/Q, :)

    Can't wait for the next one :D
  • :s: :d: :c: :h:

    Joe -

    Excellent tournament - great poker, great prizes, and great players to make it all work - thanks from both Shawn D. and myself.

    I think we've created a monster, though - I brought Shawn D. along to try his first NLHE tournament and he ended up taking down the event!!(why didn't I have a piece of him!??!) He's been on cloud nine since Saturday - we had our weekly sit n' go Sunday night at his place and tonight he's gone to Rama!! :D:D

    Special thanks to Aimee for keeping me, and everyone else, in line at the cash game!
    Thanks to the poker gods for letting me win my buy-in back!!

    Job well done - see you at the next one.

  • Thanx everyone.  I want to make that type of event a yearly thing.  Thanks to Witchdoctor poker, theplay.ca for their generous donations.  My own company kicked in some prizes to make it a great day.  Future tourney's won't be like that.  Tho it will be a reasonable buy in and lots of time for play (as the 6 hours to find a winner showed).  I guess I've gotta find heat in the garage soon  LOL
