Eight players showed up for the 2nd Quarter Final to be part of the Doneill Death March.
The only player missing that still had a shot was Nahanni. I'm surprised by that absentee. However, Boother and Beerhog showed up to add gusto to the festivities.
10 min: Gusto was given early as Beerhog (8th) and Rownder (7th) get all-in with Doneill (TT). His [T] hits the flop to eliminate the (AA) and (JJ) of Beerhog and Rownder. Ouch!
Rownder can still finish 1st with a Boother, Rennzzo, Duder, Doneill, Tigercub finish, so he is not eliminated yet!
Chips:
Doneill 4100
Duder 2080
Tigercub 1679
BigLou 1450
Rennzzo 1450
20 min:
Chips:
Doneill 4000
Duder 1945
Tigercub 1740
BigLou 1430
Rennzzo 1345
30 min:
Chips:
Doneill 3745
Duder 2283
Tigercub 1500
BigLou 1310
Rennzzo 1165
33 min: BigLou gets healthy as his (QQ) runs over Boother’s (JJ).
40 min:
Chips:
Doneill 3745
Duder 3608
BigLou 2595
Tigercub 825
Rennzzo 665
45 min: Boother (6th) ran into BigLou’s straight to end his night as spoiler. That elimination ends Rowder’s hope to clinch a seat tonight. But the man still has a stranglehold on the total points seat right now!
48 min: Tigercub (5th) has to go all-in with (99) and gets action from Duder with (AK). An [A] on the turn ends Tiger’s hopes for a seat in the 2nd quarter - as he needed a 3rd or better finish with help.
50 min:
Chips:
Duder 4933
Doneill 3045
BigLou 2882
Rennzzo 740
52 min: Rennzzo gets back in it as his (AK) doubles up against BigLou’s (99) with an [A] on the turn. Must be the night for (99) to go night-night.
Break: Four players left – all with a chance for the 2nd Quarter Seat!
Duder 4983
Doneill 2995
BigLou 2892
Rennzzo 1130
65 min:
Chips:
Doneill 5095
Duder 3108
BigLou 2292
Rennzzo 1505
67 min: BigLou (4th) hits a straight on the flop and sort of slow-plays it. Duder calls him with (As 7s) and one spade on the flop. When the turn is a [S], BigLou bets a good amount but Duder calls and hits the [S] on the river. BigLou can’t lay it down and he is out of contention for this seat tonight.
71 min: Rennzzo hits quad 6’s on Duder to take 2nd place now behind Doneill.
75 min:
Chips:
Doneill 4765
Rennzzo 4225
Duder 3050
This has been the Doneill-Duder Show all night. Where did this Rennzzo guy come from?
85 min:
Chips:
Doneill 7680 (won big pot on Ace-high!)
Rennzzo 2225
Duder 2025
86 min: Duder (3rd) hits a pair on the river and gives it a go, only to find Doneill had hit his straight on the same river card. No seat for Duder tonight.
Heads up:
Doneill 10,000
Rennzzo 2000
If Rennzzo wins this, they both get a seat, since they would both have 35 points! I don’t know if they had calculated that out or not. The big chip lead makes it irrelevant anyway.
90 min:
Doneill 7500
Rennzzo 4500
92 min: Rennzzo (2nd) hits a flop with (Js 6s) with a [6 3 2] flop. Trying to buy the pot right there, he moves all-in with top pair, but Doneill has (32). No help arrives and Doneill claims seat #3 in the finals!
What a butt kicking handed out to the rest of the NPP boys by Doneill!
He only played in 5 of the 12 tourneys and takes the seat! Wow! That is a 1st class crush!
1st – Doneill 38 pts (seat #3)
2nd – Rennzzo 32 pts
3rd – Duder 31 pts
4th – BigLou 34 pts
5th – Tigercub 30 pts
6th – Boother 14 pts
7th – Rownder 33 pts
8th – Beerhog 17 pts
MikeNiks (28 pts)
Nahanni 26 pts
ArcticBlast 16 pts
Aqualung 7 pts
Sev4TSev 3 pts
McGuiness 3 pts
You got to love the closeness of the race! Seven players had a shot on week #12.

wow! sounds like a good game! Congrats to Doneill. I'm bummed that I missed it. I had a night meeting and didn't get home until 9:00...poop! Actually, I'm bummed that I missed as many games this quarter because I did have a slight chance and winning a seat. Oh well...I guess there is next quarter.
Only one comment on the White Whale story?????
Where is the love?
