Lump2 Wins for the 9th Time – Wins 3rd Quarter Going Away!

Alessia Ventura snuck into a backroom at NPP to meet Lump2

Lump2 wins for the 9^th time this season and locks up the 3^rd Quarter seat in the NPP Finals! Congratulations to Lump2. Pre01 gave him a classic battle that was great fun to watch! But it was not to be in the end. Just an amazing run and domination of a tough poker field. Well done!

We will be starting the 4^th quarter one week early, so every week counts towards a quarter seat. So don’t take next week off. Well, you can if you are Lump2, LittleRedElf or Tomservo2. But everyone else needs to show.

Lump2 beat one of the largest and toughest fields we assembled in a while. We welcomed back K9isadog, Rjmesh and KingBing420 for a total of eighteen players. Thanks to everyone for showing up.
