Only five players made it to the gate this evening.
CigarJohn was in Canada at the ballet.
Fourputt was painting his toenails or his wife's - he forgot who's.
7forty7 was behind the shed with Thai Food (aka - man with no Poker Stars address).
But a new player joined - a friend of Matchy's - Boother36.
Nice to see new blood. We may get a full tourney of 9 or 10 soon.
Beerhog was his usual aggressive self but the flops were not cooperating. Hlam's 55 took out Beerhog's AJ (5th) and we had our first casualty of the evening.
Boother limps in from the SB with 35 and Hlam calls from the BB with T6 suited. The flop is a disaster for Boother - 663. All the chips go in and Boother is out in 4th.
Matchy kept beating the host up with A-better kicker in three hands - two to the river. This made me the short stack. I go up against Hlam with QJ against his AK and survive as I make a straight beating his two pair.
This was fair since his J9 went runner-runner full house to beat me the hand before.
But my comeback was short-lived as my AJ suited lost (3rd) to Hlam's 77.
The next hand Hlam closed out the deal with AJ against A9 for Matchy (2nd).
AJ was a loser all night until the last hand.
Final order of finish:
1st - Hlam
2nd - Matchy
3rd - Nik Faldo
4th - Boother
5th - Beerhog
The next tournament is next Tuesday, 9pm - PW is 6ofdiamonds.

It was a loose call by me with the damn A9 but it just felt right. I was destined to be on upped no matter what anyway. I still think it is $11 well spent win or lose to have a tourney in my house on a Tues. Night!
Matchy
Discount starts next tourney - compliments of Poker Stars.
Only $5.50!
No excuse now - as I think all of us would spend $6 to watch monkeys throw poop at each other.
You play tourney after tourney and nobody says nada.
You paint one toenail and you are called a toenail painter for life.
The good news is I finished in 4th. The bad news is there were only 5 players!!! However, I enjoyed the tourney and look forward to next weeks!!! See you guys then.
Wow 747 and matchy on Saturday, boother and matchy on monday, geez without my good buddy tolly NPP wouldn't of had a game either day.
We all had a moment of silence over the absence of Tolly at the Saturday affair. We had actual silence on occasion.
ever wonder why there has been 75 players to grace NPP but the host can only get players there that others have brought, you guys know the answer to that one and it aint tolly, why is Tolly the only family member Nik can get to come he has such a huge pool to draw from. figure it out boys....
Tolly is a crazy mofo,so enjoy all the new easy MONEY he has brought to NPP.......
I think one of the reasons there has been so many players over the years is because there have been a few jerks showing up for 10 years, this author included.
Jerry haven't played poker with you since '97, when are you coming back?
