K9isadog Wins for the 3rd Time in 2010 – LRE Takes Over League Lead

K9isadog expanded his Total League Lead in points with another win. LittleRedElf (LRE) fought off a bad beat by your humble scribe to still cash in tonight’s action – and earn enough points to overtake Wingsfancurt – and T3chaldy, who had permission from Faldo to miss tonight’s action as she is attending the World Series of Poker!

Faldo was hot early as he hit a two outer to hurt LRE and hit a full house to take the chip lead. But cards give-eth and cards take-eth away. I got out-drawn and out flopped with great hands later on. That’s poker.

On to the action:

27 min: Theedouble*d (17th) moves all in with (AQ), but can’t run down Suetman1’s (77).

30 min: Derf-63 (16th) is double-teamed and taken out by LittleRedElf.
35 min: Here is where Mikeniks-Faldo’s (QQ) hits a [Q] on the turn to beat LittleRedElf’s (AA). He had less than 300 chips left and came back to make the final table! What a player!

As for Faldo, leave it to me to spit Lady Luck in the eye.

44 min: Eyekall (15th) (KT) loses to xxxKdogxxx’s (JJ).
48 min: A short-stacked (SS) Wingsfancurt (14th) has to go with (A3) dominating Odds2win777’s (JT). But a [T] show ups on the flop and turn to crush him.

50 min: Funtoon’s (13th) (77) gets run down by Douge2’s (AK) straight.
51 min: Mikeniks-Faldo takes out Odds2win777 (12th) and cripples LittleRedElf AGAIN as they have trips and I have a full house!

How do I blow this one? I still don’t know – except the deck gets cool and I get run down when it wasn’t. Still, my finish tonight was a huge disappointment after this 1st hour.

1st break:
Mikeniks-Faldo 5669
K9isadog 3706
ThePunk75 2638
Douge2 2546
Meatsword 2515
Absea98 1983
xxxKdogxxx 1936
LittleRedElf 1497
Tomservo2 1480
Suetman1 1020
Tigercub8189 510

62 min: A SS Tigercub8189 (11th) goes with (Ad 4d) but runs into Absea98’s (JJ).
64 min: Suetman1 (10th) is the bubble Lady tonight.
67 min: Meatsword (9th) goes with (AQ), but Mikeniks-Faldo holds (KK). How did I lose this tourney again????? Hint: The tourney winner had a lot to do with it.

73 min: Douge2 (8th) goes with (77) but ThePunk75 has (TT).

Somewhere in here, K9isadog dismantles my chip stack. In a SB vs BB meeting, he has a stray (T) on a [T7T] board, while I hold a (7) – of course.

Then he makes a call of my raise with (AJ) with (QJ) and hits a [Q] on the flop and turn.

85 min: And then Mikeniks-Faldo (7th) loses the coin flip with (Ah Kh) to LittleRedElf’s (TT). It is poetic justice for LRE and another disappointing performance by Faldo.

87 min: Tomservo2 (6th) is knocked out by xxxKdogxxx.
89 min: A SS Absea98 (5th) has to go with (K8), but runs into ThePunk75’s (Ad 9d).
97 min: A SS xxxKdogxxx (4th) loses with (JT) to K9isadog’s (K3).
110 min: A SS LittleRedElf (3rd) gallant run ends when he has to try with (A9), but K9isadog hits his flush (Kh 8h).

Heads up: K9isadog 10500 - 15000 ThePunk75

115 min: K9isadog 5500 - 20000 ThePunk75

2nd break:
ThePunk75 20000
K9isadog 5500

K9isadog flops a board of deuces while holding one to win a big pot. Then;
123 min: A now SS ThePunk75 (2nd) with (9 3) but K9isadog has (A2). Ah, those ducks again.

Congratulations to K9isadog on his 4th NPP win, and third this year!
