K9isadog Wins Back to Back NPP Nights!

Well, it’s official. K9isadog is the LittleRedElf – Doneill – Boother36 of 2010. He is dominating the rest of us – and doing it as easily as his predecessors. Of course LittleRedElf is still kicking our butts too, but not at the same level as last year. He can’t with K9 stealing all the points.

What started out as a cavalry charge to the wire of the 2nd quarter has dwarfed into a three horse race for the 2nd quarter NPP seat in the finals. LittleRedElf has a commanding lead, but T3chlady and ThePunk75 can still catch him.

The irony is T3chlady will probably miss next week as she is in Las Vegas for the Ladies WSOP. Only Faldo would leave the Vegas action to make the NPP tourney. ThePunk75 will have to win and LittleRedElf will have to miss the final table next Tuesday for ThePunk to overtake him. If ThePunk75 wins and LittleRedElf finishes ninth – they tie and both win a seat!

Stay tuned. On to the action:

7 min: Wingsfancurt (18th) sees his (AT) unable to catch T3chlady’s (AK).
27 min: Tigercub8189 (17th) is double-teamed and ThePunk75’s flopped straight is fatal when the Cub turns trip Queens.

28 min: Tomservo2 (16th). While figuring out the last hand, I missed Tom’s exit.
30 min: Odds2win777 (15th) misses his diamond draw to LittleRedElf’s (AA).
35 min: Funtoon (14th). Missed this playing my own hand.
37 min: Eyekall (13th) sees his (K9) hit a straight on the turn, but K9isadog hits a full house on the river.

46 min: Pre01 (12th) finds out his (55) cannot catch up to Theedouble*d’s (TT).
51 min: Suetman1 (11th) loses a coin flip with (AK) to Douge2’s (JJ).
52 min: Merhibka (10th) bubbles with (AT) against Theedouble*d’s (AK).
58 min: Mikeniks-Faldo (9th) watches his (AA) lose to Theedouble*d’s (66) with a [6] on the flop. Where is my heart medicine?????

1st break:
Theedouble*d 6435
T3chlady 4920
K9isadog 4090
Douge2 3750
Derf-63 2840
LittleRedElf 2820
ThePunk75 1655
Absea98 490

78 min: A short-stacked (SS) Derf-63 (8th) has to try when he pairs his (8) on the flop. But K9isadog has (AJ) and hits an [A] on the turn.

79 min: A SS ThePunk75 (7th) has to go with (K8) but cannot catch K9isadog’s (AJ).
90 min: Douge2 (6th) sees his (44) lose to Absea98’s (AA).
113 min: A SS T3chlady (5th) goes with (A2), but cannot catch Theedouble*d’s (A5).

2nd break:
Theedouble*d 9980
K9isadog 9305
Absea98 4660
LittleRedElf 3055

125 min: Absea98 (4th) Missed this one.
130 min: Theedouble*d (3rd) goes with (33), but K9isadog has (KK).

Heads up: K9isadog 22000 - 5000 LittleRedElf

132 min: LittleRedElf (2nd) has to go with (Kh Qh) and is correctly called by K9isadog (Kc 9c). Is there any doubt of the outcome when the Dog gets this hand? K9 hits the ten-high straight to close it out.

Congratulations on back-to-back NPP wins, K9isadog!
