May I suggest some Omaha for the alternate format game, or 7 Card Stud.
/g2
Sounds like it will be a great day either way.
And remember, if you're not in the grand final, but would still like to play some poker, we'll be running games and tournaments upstairs.
stp
when are you going to get comfirmation from Dave and Tom (I know he's away) for the GF?
If I'm not in, I'm going to watch Laurier give it "prison style" to the University of Saskatchewan, then Ill pop over for to watch the final table, play in side games, and eat some Pepi's.
See you then,
JohnnieH

Nice.
Show up Johnny! Show up!
I believe it in the best interest of the integrity of the forum to have the previous post, authored by Mr. Flint Bones, stricken from the forum.
Yours Truly,
/g2
P.S. Quick, before Johnnie sees it!!!
I'll be there.
and give me a HOO!
Or not. Your preference.
/g2
Other fearless predictions: Tyson takes second and stays a bridesmaid and Mark continues Wednesday's role as bubble-boy
Thanks for the vote of confidence. We'll miss you on Saturday. See you Sunday @ Voodoo.
My bets are on Rob or Mario.
Rob, because he won't have to really worry about running the show, just focus on his game.
Mario, well he's just sexy. Just kidding, Mario has also been playing REALLY well lately, but getting unlucky.
No disrespect to the other players, just my thoughts.
Johnnie
Pinhead
stpboy
Tye
Those are the top 4...not sure in what order. I like Tye's game lately.
Honestly, looking at the field of players, there will be no "surprise" winner. I like the mix of players/styles.
You all have game.
Good luck and congrats to Rob, you run a great game.
Unfortunately I will not be able to make it 2day, I woke up feeling pretty sick.
Good luck everyone.
Ian
Sorry about the delay.
But after 1 HOT week partying in the Dominican Republic and 1 COLD week snowboarding and partying in Lake Louise - I am back and ready to kick some ass.
See you all tonight.
Sorry to hear that Ian. Hope you feel better, dude. So that makes me first on the alternet list. Has anyone heard from 'batmankw' Dave? I know he's a forum member, but he has never posted!!!!!
JohnnieH
As of right now, I am in.
C'mon baby, c'mon..........
Thanks
I wanted to tell everyone about a dream I had last night, well one was a dream the other a nightmare. The dream was about Laurier winning the vanier cup and everyone celebrating on the field, i'm going to call that a preminition.
The nightmare was a little scary so brace yourself please. It was after Christmas, I hadn't played poker for awhile, likely since the Grand Finale at Rob's. I was excited to play once again at the Bristol St. Night Club and Casino, tonight was the night of Merry Christmas Madness. I arrived at Rob's sometime in the evening, everything was dark, there was a cloud of smoke or perhaps a mist hovering about the floor of his house. At first I thought it to be the infamous smoke machine but later realized it was actually a cloud of cursedness that had engulfed the once friendly home. I made my way downstairs and took my seat. Noone had greeted me at all, they all had this 'dead' look on their faces, as if they were zombies. I look over and see Mark Breaton Knawing on his own arm while muttering something about Pepi's pizza. Steve "Allin" is in the corner (near the stereo) in the fetal position whispering to himself "fold, fold, fold". I couldn't understand what the problem was, I continued to look around the room to see horrifying images of what used to be my friends. I was panning the room like a seasoned director when I saw what it was that has made this into A real Merry X-Mas MADNESS! Two photographs had been placed on the wall, I couldn't turn away at the site of them and had now realized that the horror within the house was due to these two pictures. I awoke immidiately with the images of these two faces burned into my mind.....
Tyson and Mario!
Congrats boys on your great seasons! Assuming my preminitions are true...all in fun.

Of course, Shannon just have to win ANOTHER tournament to cap off his amazing run at our 5 player sit-and-go, by pretty much bluffing and outdrawing the table (and winning a bounty he placed on himself). Going all-in every hand when we were left at 3 players, well, it works really well apparently. A second order of Pepi were made. And to cap off a great night, Rob introduced the great game of BADUGI!
Congrats to Shannon for winning this, and to all the players who qualified for this grand final. A BIG thank you to Rob for opening his place to us, and running a series of fantastic tournaments this year.
Well played my friend. I was secretly routing for you the whole night.
Congrats to Tye, Brad and Mark for making the money. That in itself says what great players you all are, just to be able to make some cash from this insanely difficult field of players.
Rob. You have been such an amazing host and friend to ALL OF US this past year. It's been a blast getting to know you and I'm looking forward to defending my BB from you someday. Thanks again.
Thanks to everyone for the encouraging words about me finally getting in to the tournament. I don't know how many times I heard "Hope you make it in, Johnnie", but I truly appreciate everyone.
And lastly, I lift my glass to toast 'batmankw' Dave, for NOT SHOWING UP!!!!!! THANKS BUDDY!!!
Can't wait for 2006,
JohnnieH
Congrats on your win! Given your current string of wins I think we were all hoping your luck would have ran out, but it seems you've proven it wasn't so much luck as your skill that was pulling off some great victories. The fact that you came from behind to take it down makes your win that much nicer I'm sure. I'm happy for you and your win. Good job.
Dear Everyone Else,
I'm sorry to hear that you all let Shannon beat you again. I'm kinda gald I wasn't there because he probably would have beat me again, too.
