Results from Friday 65.00 Freeze Out put on by West Side Poker Club
First I want to thanks everyone who came tonight. There were a lot of good players including having 4 out of 5 former champions including our Heads Up Champion Lee R. We continue to see a lot of forum players. Thank you for introducing yourself as such. We had 40 pre-register and ended up with 32 players. Traffic was bad including a partial closing of the 407.
There were a lot of near misses and runner, runner cards to form 3 and four card flushes. I can honestly say I haven’t seen so many pocket AA and trips go down as I did tonight.
The final table started with 8 guys. The top 5 were in the money. In the end it came down to Joe G and Rohit J, with Joe having 76000 of the 96000 on the table. Joe offered a split giving Rohit about 100.00 more than what second was paying out. Rohit thought about it and said no. After trading hands and stealing blinds and the occasional flop, we find Joe is big blind 2500 (with antes) and Rohit calls the 2500. Joe checks. Flop comes 8 2 4. Joe checks. Rohit raises all in with top pair. Joe calls and flips over 8 2 for two pair. No help on the turn or river. Congratulations Joe!
1st Joe G 736.00
2nd Rohit J 368.00
3rd Eric A 208.00
4th Trevor 160.00
5th Dave L 128.00
Joe also won 45.00 in bounty chips eclipsing our old mark of 40.00. Our next event will be the cruise on August 28th. Watch this board for further updates.
Thanks to Dave the witch doctor, will be sharing an announcment soon.

The best hand I got was KQ : on the BB. Blinds were 100/200, UTG was a big stack and made it another 1000 to go. All fold to me, I have only 950 left so I call all in. He turns over A4 and hits his A on the turn, no spades, no straights, no nothing and I call it a night.
Referencing an earlier post, I am now a supporter of the "I am a PokerForum.ca Member" buttons or something. I tried to meet some fellow members, but I felt awkward going up to people and saying "Psssst, you a member?" I kept getting the strangest looks.
Congrats to the winners.

WitchDoctor, were you the one selling the Doyle Brunson shirts?
Yes it was the Witchdoctor who was selling those shirts as a fund raiser for a little girl with Cancer in the London Area.
