Tomservo2 Wins His 1st NPP Tourney of 2010

It got wild and wooly there at the final table. Suck outs galore as time after time the way behind short stack doubled up. But thru it all Tomservo2 played steady and bested twenty-six others to capture top prize.

My reporting is a little weak this week. Truth be told, I had other things to do while playing poker (work reports and such). After I got knocked out, more of the same. Things should be calmer next week.

On to the action:

17 min: Wingsfancurt (27th) took Angiebell10’s place as first out. Angie must have taken this abuse personally, as she was nowhere to be found tonight.

38 min: Derf-63 (26th).
43 min: Theedouble*d (25th).
46 min: Budda627 (24th).
49 min: ThePunk75 (23rd).
50 min: Rennzzo (22nd).
51 min: Akensi (21st)
52 min: Tigertown369 (20th).
55 min: Gdub28 (19th)
57 min: Odds2win777 (18th)

Vanettej 1460
Absea98 1380

62 min: A short-stacked (SS) Suetman1 (17th) goes with (33) and loses the race to Tomservo2 with (AQ), and a [Q] on the river.

73 min: Mistermusic (16th)
76 min: Mikeniks-Faldo (15th) tries to hit a straight or a flush with (KT), but get nipped by Tigercub8189’s (A8).

86 min: Biglou93 (12th)
90 min: K9isadog (11th)
101 min: Funtoon bubbles (10th).

Now some crazy stuff happens. Fun to watch, but I would have rather been a participant obviously (not in the crazy hands however).

107 min: Douge2 got crippled as his (KK) loses to Kensik’s (A5) four board card flush.
108 min: Douge2’s (44) gets him back in the game as a [4] on the flop takes the pot away from BigDaddyTman’s (AA).

110 min: SS Vanettej’s (Jh 8h) also dips into BigDaddyTman’s stack (A6) as the board delivers [JJ].

111 min: In a battle of shorter stacks, Vanettej’s (JJ) gets run down by Douge2’s (AT) with an [A] on the river.

115 min: The “Survivor” magic ends for T3chlady (9th) as BigDaddyTman hits trip 8’s.

118 min: Vanettej (8th) goes with (KJ) but can’t catch Tomservo2 with (As Ts).
120 min: The Break Monster removes Tigercub8189 (7th) as his (AJ) gets run down by Tomservo2’s trip 5’s (A5).

2nd Break:
No stacks. Bathroom break and discussion with the boss about Forrest Gump stopped me from getting them. Sorry everyone. I wish I had this information.

125 min: A SS Douge2 (6th) goes with (97) and a [9] on the flop, but Kensik has (QQ).

136 min: A SS Kensik (5th) has to go with (J2) and loses to Meatsword’s (Tc 9c) and a [9] on the flop.

140 min: Fourbetbluff (4th) has to try and steal as his flush draw misses with (Qc 7c), but Tomservo2 hits his straight and goes nowhere (9h 4h).

141 min: A SS BigDaddyTman (3rd) has to try with (KQ), but cannot catch Tomservo2’s (Ad 3d).

Heads up: Tomservo2 26000 - 14500 Meatsword
145 min: Heads up: Tomservo2 25000 - 15500 Meatsword
150 min: Heads up: Tomservo2 14000 - 26500 Meatsword

160 min: Heads up: Tomservo2 26500 - 14000 Meatsword

Nice battle guys!

164 min: Both see the flop of [5s Tc Ah]. Tomservo2 pot bets and gets called. The turn is [Ts]. A pot bet by Meatsword (2nd) gets called. A river of [5d] gets a pot bet by Meat (AJ) that is raised by Tom (75) and called all-in by Meat.
