I'M PRETTY STOKED ON MY WIN TODAY. I SURELY DIDNT EXPECT IT.

EARLY ON I HAD A LIL SET BACK THEN MANAGED TO GRAB ON TO SOME CHIPPIES AND IT JUST KEPT ON ROLLING IN. THEN I WAS. jUST HOPING TO MAKE THE FINAL TABLE. ONCE THERE I NEVER IMAGINED I WOULD PULL OUT A VICTORY, BUT SOMETIMES THE CARDS WILL FALL YOUR WAY AND TODAY WAS MY DAY!

LOTS OF FUN EARLY ON WITH PLAYERS LEARNING AS WE PLAYED. ONCE THE FIELD DWINDLED DOWN THERE WAS ALOT OF GOOD SOLID ACTION AND EXTREEMLY GOOD PLAY FROM ALL. THE FINAL TABLE HAD THE CREAM OF THE CROP FOR SURE. "ANKARABEBESI' WENT OUT IN 6TH TRIING TO DOUBLE UP HIS SHORT STACK, FOLLOWED BY "SPADE SAVVY" IN 5TH, "ONTPLAYER" SUFFERED SOME DEVISTATING BLOWS TO HIS MONSTER STACK AND WENT OUT IN 4TH. THE REMAINING 3 BATTLED IT OUT FOR A WHILE UNTIL "ACEOVSPADES' WENT OUT IN 3RD. THE HU BATTLE TOOK SOME TIME ALSO AS WE SWAPPED CHIPS BACK AND FORTH, BUT I ULTIMATELY LANDED THE RIGHT CARDS AT THE RIGHT TIME AND A NOBLE 2ND PLACE WENT TO "EUGENEUS" (love the name and the band)

KUDOS TO ALL THAT PLAYED AND HATS OFF TO THE FINALISTS!! WAY TO ROCK DA FELTS!!

SPECIAL THANKS TO "TINCAN1983" WHO GAVE ME MANY VALUABLE TIPS AND INSIGHT INTO THIS GAME. I'M SURE HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A FINALIST HIMSELF, AS HE WAS SOLIDLY IN 3RD WITH AT LEAST 30 LEFT AND HE HAD TO LEAVE FOR WORK. HE STILL MANAGED TO CASH IN 10TH. WELL DONE MY FRIEND!
