Suetman1 Wins 3rd NPP Tourney – Ties for 1st in 4th Quarter

Suetman1 (Claudia – or Mrs. Absea98) not only ties ThePunk75 for the 4th quarter league lead, but she takes 1st place alone in the Total Points seat race.

So even if she falters down the stretch in the league, she could still hang on to one of the two Total Points seat. Every week is important as most of the league is still in contention for either or both seat chances.

I urge all of you to take a look at both the standings. Still four rounds left and most of the league can still make the finals. Very exciting stuff!

I must apologize for the poor reporting tonight, but I did warn you. I just could not stay on the action full time.

I had some hospital work done on me today, and I had family here tonight. Second, I made some calls to tell folks how it went. Third, I had calls from well – wishers. Fourth, there was some questions about what medications to take when, so I was calling the doctors and trying to get an answer.

Obviously, it was a busy evening during the tourney tonight. Good thing I won my seat last quarter. I would have had no shot this quarter.

On to the action:

4 min: T3chaldy sees her (QQ) run into ThePunk75’s (KK). Crippled, but battle on she does.

7 min: A short-stacked (SS) K9isadog (17th) goes with his signature hand (Kh 9h), but cannot catch Theedouble*d’s (AJ).

12 min: Pre01 (16th).
13 min: Nahanni74 (15th)
27 min: Theedouble*d (14th) goes with (A9) and cannot catch Absea98’s’s (AT).

32 min: Douge2 (13th) sees this flop with four-way action: [Tc Qc 7s]. xxxKdogxxx makes the standard 3x blind bet and Douge2 is the only caller. The turn is a [Ad]. Kdog bets again and Douge moves in with (AT) and Kdog has to call with (Ac 3c), and the flush card hits the river.

38 min: T3chaldy (12th). The end of the fight.
44 min: LittleRedElf (11th).
48 min: Eyekall (10th)
49 min: A SS Wingsfancurt (9th) go with (Kh 6h), but cannot catch Derf-63’s (44).
51 min: A SS Meatsword (8th) goes with (AT) and runs into ThePunk75’s (JJ).
53 min: A SS Odds2win777 (7th) has to go with (Kd Jd), but cannot catch xxxKdogxxx’s (QQ).

55 min: A SS Tigercub8189 (6th) moves with (TT), but Absea98 (AK) correctly calls and hits his [A] on the flop.

1st break:
xxxKdogxxx 8970
Suetman1 8690
Absea98 4280
Derf-63 1887
ThePunk75 1673

Doctor calls, daughter visit and a few other distraction stops my usual full reporting of the finale. Sorry readers and players. Next time.

65 min: ThePunk75 (5th)
67 min: Derf-63 (4th)
86 min: A SS xxxKdogxxx (3rd) goes with (Qd Jd), but cannot catch Absea98’s(AT).

This sets up a husband – wife battle for tonight’s title. If Absea98 likes the couch, he should play for the win. Or,

100: Absea98 (2nd) has to ship it in when his (87) takes top pair on a flop of [2c 3c 7c]. Unfortunately, his lovely bride is holding (Qc Tc) for the flush!
