Bronco76 Wins NPP Internet Tourney #37

We had eleven players make it – including a couple of surprise entries.

First the good stuff – Tigercub8189 makes his first appearance. Welcome to the toughest internet tourney on the planet, Tiger. Negreanu, Ivey, Hansen nor Chan want any part of this line-up.

Second, I made it tonight when I was suppose to be a scratch. I was suppose to be on a flight back home and probably just getting in my car in the airport lot when the tourney was starting. But some tower feed went out and planes could not communicate – so everything was grounded. I got put up in a hotel where…hell, the internet worked so I can’t complain.

Cigar4John stopped by but didn’t play. On to the action:

On hand #40, Aqualung (11th), Boother and Tigercub call it down. The flop of [6c Jc Ts] sees Tigercub bets, Aqua calls and Boother folds. The turn is [Qh], Tigercub bets and Aqua calls. A [3c] hits the river and Aqua semi-bluffs all-in. Tigercub calls as he hit the straight on the turn.

On hand #53 ArticBlast (10th) is knocked out by Bronco76, but I missed the hand. We jumped to one table and I missed the whole thing. Sorry.

On hand #55 Nahanni (9th) goes all-in with {77} and runs into Sev4TSev’s {JJ} and she gets no help.

On hand #68 a short-stacked Rownder (8th) goes all-in with {66} and Boother calls with {A9}. A [9] on the turn ends Rownder’s night.

On hand #70, we had a rare three-player all-in. A short-stacked Matchy (7th) with {T8}, a short-stacked Beerhog with {ATs} and Bronco with {KK}. An [A] on the flop and Matchy is out and Beerhog has life.

On hand #84, Tigercub (6th) is all-in with {Q6} and is called by Bronco with {K6}. A [K] on the flop and Tigercub is returned to the den for hibernation, as we head to the break.

Bronco 5440
Boother 4220
Sev4TSev 4065
Mikeniks 1820
Beerhog 955

On hand #86, Mikeniks flops a full house and a short-stacked Beerhog (5th) had to make a move.

On hand #116, Boother (4th) made a bluff all-in with {97} and ran into Bronco’s {AA}.

On hand #130, Bronco calls Sev4TSev’s blind. The flop is [3s 4d Qh]. Bronco bets and 747 calls. [Kd] is the turn and Bronco checks. Sev4TSev makes a good size bet and gets called by Bronco. Two straight draws, a flush draw and two overcards. Who has what now and who will have the goods on the river?

The river brings a [2h]. Bronco bets, Sev4TSev (3rd) goes all-in with his two pair and Bronco calls with his straight on the river.

Down to two and I am at a 3 to 1 chip disadvantage. Combine that with my pitiful heads up record and the end is a foregone conclusion. I (2nd) eventually have to go all-in with {A7} and Bronco calls with {A8} and it is over. Nice job Bronco.

It was his first NPP Internet Tourney win! Congratulations!
