Eight players made it to the felt. I even made it after a very hectic day. We welcome a new Player - Rounder73. Welcome Andy.
It took til Hand #20 for a three way with Beerhog (8th) with KQ, Matchy with J5 and Rounder with A9s. The board of 5JQ23 sent Beerhog to the rail and crippled Rounder - setting up Matchy for another run at a title.
SpartyToJo with AT finished off Rounder (7th) on Hand #23 with KJ. Rounder had to make a move and never paired the board.
No action until Hand #56 when the lowest stack Momo doubles up with a JT straight beating Sparty's KT.
Matchy took some chips from Boother to regain the chip lead on hand #65.
Momo moves back up to the pack (sinking me [Nik Faldo] into last place in chips) hitting trips on Hand #66.
But Hand #67 picks me up some much needed ammo.
On Hand #73, Momo's AJ hurts Boother's stack when his 77 loses when a J hits on the flop.
Boother makes his move the next hand (#74) with AT. He gets called by Sparty with AK and Momo with KQ. This sets up the bad beat of the night as Sparty has both his opponents dominated - Sparty(52%), Momo(24%), Boother(19%). The flop of [K56] gets Sparty to commit all his chips and Momo calls - Sparty(85%), Momo(12%), Boother(2%).
The turn [7] - Sparty(93%), Momo(7%), Boother(0%).
And river of [Q] sends Boother (6th) and Sparty (5th) to the rail. Momo is now the man at the table by at least 3 to 1 in chips.
On Hand #86 another 3-way occurs with Cigar4John, Matchy and Momo. Matchy bows out after the flop of [K48]. John (K4)(91%) bets and Momo (98)(9%) calls all the way. An 8 on the river cripples John's stack.
John (4th) makes his last stand (T7) on Hand #95 and Momo calls with K3 suited and makes his flush.
Hand #99 hurts Matchy as Momo pairs his card on the river. He is taken out (3rd) on the next hand when his KTs does not improve against Momo's 88.
That left Momo with an 8 to 1 chip lead over me, but we battled for a while. I hit a 65 straight to get some chips back. I got back to 5 to 6 in chips as my AQ beat Momo's KT. I took the chip lead 6 to 5 as my 99's held up.
Hand #142 Momo regains the chip lead as I have to surrender after some bets and calls as my hand turned into a foot.
Hand #145 ends the affair as my (2nd) 76s hit the flush but Momo's 42 made a full house! Congrats to Momo!

Momo = Blomo
Don't Thursdays work better for everyone?
We had a vote already Fourputt. Thursday finished a distant third to Monday and Tuesday.
What is your major malfunction with Tuesday? It starts at 9pm. Kids should be in bed and the wife should be in lingerie on the Stairmaster.
Or with Juan the pool boy. Either way, it is poker time.
Please forgive me for giving my opinion on the matter.
