Rennzzo Wins His 2nd NPP Event on Week Two of 2009

And once again we had a record tying number of entries at 22. Lots of double knockouts (twos?) tonight as you will see. Why all the two’s? Did you see the picture of the new player at NPP? I think we may be cursed with twos now. Not that there is anything wrong with those – uh, that.

On to the action:

21 min: Last week’s winner Douge2 (22nd) was treated shabbily. They say fame is fleeting. I wouldn’t know because I’ve never had any.

32 min: Nixi44 (21st) was sitting too close to Faldo’s seat and chips and the bad luck rubbed off obviously.

35 min: Thedouble*d (20th) was out next.

40 min: New player Jules401961 (19th) got the standard NPP greeting. Be sure to email npokerp at yahoo with your 1st name and last initial please, Jules. Thanks.

42 min: Kensik (18th) was out next.

44 min: In the first of a quite a few 3-ways, LittleRedElf (17th) got bounced alone.

46 min: A big bluff by Acesovru (16th) gets called by Duder1123.

50 min: Another 3-way and I (Mikeniks-Faldo 15th) got a front row seat with Sirgash (14th) as Duder1123’s (KK) took us short stacks out together.

54 min: TheNewY2K (13th) made his move with (AJ) and was called by Mistermusic5 with (QQ).

58 min: BigLou93 (12th) and 7Jokers tangle near the Break Monster’s water’s edge. But I don’t think Lou was dragged in as much as he fell in. BigLou bets his (TT) and Jokers defends his blind with another caller.

The flop is [92Q]. It is checked and the turn is [7]. Biglou bets and 7Jokers calls alone. Danger Will Robinson!!! (Ok, I’m dating myself with that one).

The river is a [9] and when BigLou93 goes all-in, 7Jokers’ full house falls on him.

Break:
Duder1123 4584
Crackbuyer 3926
Jager244 3780
Mistermusic5 3375
Robbin_Hudd 3004
Tigercub8189 2975
Boother36 2895
RKidder51400 1530
Akensi 1390
Rennzzo 840

Maybe Comeback of the Year honors won in Week 2!

65 min: Another 3-way double knockout as Mistermusic5 (11th) (99) and Jager244 (10th)(AJ) get all-in against Duder1123’s (KK) and cannot catch up.

68 min: New player Robin_Hudd (9th) has his (AQ) run right into last year’s champ Duder1123’s hot run as he is only holding (AA) after the (KK) three minutes ago! Points on your first appearance at NPP will have the players wary of you now Robin.

70 min: RKidder51400 (8th) finally has to take a stand with (99), but 7Jokers is holding (QQ).

77 min: Yet another 3-way double knockout as Tigercub8189 (7th) gets a bad beat here as his (KK) loses. Boother (6th) was all-in too with (AJ). 7Jokers has (AK) and looks to be in trouble. But a flop of [QAT] has Tiger and Boother now drawing very thin.

93 min: A long battle ensues before Akensi (5th) raises with (88) and is called by 7Jokers and Rennzzo. The flop is [5d 7d Qh]. Akensi decides to make her move and goes all-in.

Both guys call; 7Jokers (9d 6d) and Rennzzo (Ad 9s). The turn is a [9] and Amy is out.

Guys we have some very strong lady players in our mist now – in alphabetical order; Akensi, Nahanni74, Nixi44, RKidder51400 and of course Umichpoker. Thanks for joining and classing up the place, Ladies.

Now go make us guys something to eat and NPP needs vacuuming. Take the beer empties back to the store too.

117 min: Another long time of battle ensues and then a big hand happens. Chip leader Crackbuyer loses his lead to Duder1123 as he call’s Duder’s rivered full house all-in with his river made straight. Ouch!

2nd Break:

Duder1123 14566
7Jokers 8056
Rennzzo 6400
CrackBuyer 3978

122 min: Fireworks early as Rennzzo takes over the chip lead by his (88) beating Duder1123’s (AQ).

124 min: Crackbuyer (4th) has to make a move with (QJ) and Duder’s (KJ) dominates.

126 min: Rennzzo loses the chip lead back to Duder1123 as his full house is smaller than Duder’s. But revenge is on the horizon.

132 min: 7Jokers (3rd) makes his move with (A7) and Duder calls with (Qd Jd) and a big stack. A turn [Q] and river [Q] take out the man with the most wins at NPP.

152 min: I would have kept the chip totals every 5 minutes as usual, but the stacks never really changed. Duder1123 stayed at about a 3 to 1 advantage for the whole 20 minutes until Rennzzo’s (55) beat Duder’s (44).

154 min: The flop is [997] and there is betting and calling. The turn is [T] with more betting and calling. The traps are set. The river is another [T] and Duder (2nd) goes all-in holding a (7) but Rennzzo is holding a (T). Nice job on your 2nd NPP win Rennzzo.

I think Faldo must have gotten thrown from his horse, after checking his profile.
