Duder1123 Wins NPP Tourney #20-8

Nine of us entered it and it seemed we were all in a hurry to watch the Pistons or Tigers.
Lots of all – in action tonight - until we got to heads up at least.

6 min: Rownder takes a cold deck special early when his (KK) runs into Tigercub8189’s (AA). I hate when that happens. He’s crippled, but in typical Rownder style, he battles back.

15 min: Biglou93 (9th) goes all-in with (AT) and a flop of [JT6] but last week’s winner Doneill is holding (QQ).

27 min: Rownder gets healthier when his (JT) all-in beats Beerhog’s (44).

32 min: The cold deck continued for Beerhog (8th) as his slow play of (TT) and a flop of [KKT] gets run over by Rennzzo’s (JJ) when a [J] comes on the turn. I had to fold QQ myself when those two went crazy. Lucky me.

33 to 40 min: Rownder won 8 hands without a showdown in this stretch to triple up his stack. Giving Rownder chips is like pouring gas on a campfire.

46 min: I (Faldo) have to make a move with (Jd 9d), but ArcticBlast calls me with a hand of (Qh 4h), but I survive when I flop a [J].

48 min: Duder survives an all-in with (K6) against Doneil’s (A9) with a [6] on the turn. The tide turns for him there, and my tide after surviving an all-in never materialized.

49 min: ArcticBlast (7th) gets cold-decked as his (A6) and a flop-turn of [A78A] runs into Tigercub8189’s (AT), who adds a [T] on the river for good measure.

52 min: Tigercub continued to cold deck people as Rownder (6th) had no choice but to go all-in with (Q8) and a flop of [TQJ] and the Cat is sitting there with (QT). Ouch!

55 min: Doneil (5th) can’t repeat as tourney winner as his (AK) hits the flop of [KJ2], but Duder had (22).

Break:
Rennzzo 5195
Tigercub 4562
Duder 4283
Faldo 960

62 min: I’m (Faldo) in trouble and my (98) all-in gets action in two places and hits a flop of [J3T]. Looking good, but I never improve and I’m out on a bubble again.

64 min: Tigercub (3rd) ran into a spiked river by Duder, which crippled his stack. He goes all-in with (KQ) against Rennzzo’s (99). The flop has a [9] in it and the Cat runs out of lives – and chips.

Heads up with Duder with 10,000 and Rennzzo with 3500. Quick ending? Not so fast. They battle for almost another half hour!

65 min: Duder 10000 – Renz 3500
68 min: D 6500 – R 6500
70 min: D 9000 – R 4500
71 min: D 4000 – R 9500
73 min: D 3000 – R 10500
76 min: D 6000 – R 7500
80 min: D 4500 - R 9000
88 min: D 4000 - R 9500
90 min: D 7000 - R 6500

91 min: Duder raises all-in with (33) and Rennzzo (2nd) calls with (KQ). The flop comes [388] and Duder wins his second NPP tourney! Nice job and great battle guys!

1st – Duder 21 pts
2nd – Rennzzo 12 pts
3rd – Tigercub 21 pts
4th – Mikeniks (Faldo) (15 pts)
5th – Doneill 11 pts
6th – Rownder 27 pts
7th – ArcticBlast 16 pts
8th – Beerhog 7 pts
9th – BigLou 26 pts
Nahanni 26 pts
Boother 14 pts
Aqualung (6 pts)
Sev4TSev 3 pts
McGuiness 3 pts

Total point race is on the right side of the blog.

Don'y worry Hoggg, I still love ya' the same, in a strictly non-homo sense. The friday game was just the usual post Coyote golf league stuff. I am down in Fla. with the family now. Went to Busch Gardens w/ kids and caught redfish and snooks (and my first barracuda) with my old man. Got a nice big red today, I swear the ocean fish fight 4x the stuff I catch in Mich. Anywhoo..I will try to organize the game on or about the 31st if we can get playas, which don't seem easy these days.
Matchy out
