Another fun one in the books. We had 27 players this week. Things got started early as Linda shipped Mitch to the rail in the first round. Matt F's quad aces managed to put a big dent in table three sending both Kelly and Bob L packing on the same hand. The final table was seated when Ron T was sent away by Steve S. This weeks bubble boy ended up being Brian T ousted by Sharon B. Fifth place went to Dave M who got busted out by Bob S on his way to running the table. Matt F was next to go followed by Steve S in third and Sharon in second. Congrats to this weeks winner Bob S who dominated late busting out 5 of the final 7 including all of the last four.
Next month the bounties will be on Bob as the previous winner and Karl as the current points leader,

2016 - 2017 Season Tournament #1
Great start to the new season, our eighth if I'm not mistaken. We have a full 30 members for the first time ever. The first tournament had 26 players, of course one of us decided to only stick around for two or three hands (but we won't mention Kelly's name). The final table was made up of Suzy (nice job for a first timer), Mike, Janine, myself, Mitch (this months bubble boy), Dave finishing fifth and Matt in fourth. It came down to three familiar faces at the end with Steve going out in third and Bob D and Karl playing one showdown hand to decide the winner while chopping the money. Karl's Q,J held up an earned him the first place points. Congrats to both Karl and Steve who managed to eliminate 9 of the 25 knock out victims between them. The bullseye and double bonus points will be on Karl next month!

2013-2014 Tournament #2
The final table was seated when Dave D got his fifth kill of the night taking out Karl. From here Bob D started his assault on the final table taking down Janine, Billy W and Mike S all in a row. Joy got in on the action sending Mark L out on the bubble. Bob D got his sixth and final knockout of the night finishing of Derrick. Dave D then got his sixth knockout eliminating Bob D and putting himself three handed against Joy and Kelly. The girls teamed up on Dave and Joy eventually disposed of him. Joy's run to the heads up battle was an amazing one being down to only 300 chips at one point at the final table. After a great heads up battle that lasted at least 40 hands Kelly managed to come out on top and get her first league victory. The great finishes by Dave in back to back weeks though left him in the top spot in the points.

2013-2014 Tournament #1
Okay, I'm going to try to do a better job keeping this up to date this season. The first tournament of the season is in the books and it was an entertaining one. It started off pretty fast and furious with Sharon getting knocked out courtesy of Steve S within seven minutes of the first deal. A mere ten minutes later Theresa also let Steve get the best of her. The pace started to slow down from there with only Joy getting sent to the rail in the second round.
The final table was formed when Kevin C was sent packing late in round seven by Dave M. Everyone tightened up with only Bob S busting out in the next two rounds. New member Dan T did a great job making it to eighth place eventually getting knocked out by Tom J. Seventh went to Bobby N, playing for the first time in about five seasons, when Janine sent him packing. Janine continued her destruction by sending Derrick home in sixth and on the bubble, soon followed by Dave M in fifth. Darlene then sent Janine home in fourth leaving Tom and Darlene to try and team up on Dave D for the top spot. The three handed battle was short lived with Darlene getting busted out in third by Dave. Dave only needed a couple hands to finish off the win sending Tom home in second.
Interesting note, this was the second season in a row that Dave managed to win the opening tournament of the season. It also gave Dave at least one win in four consecutive seasons.

2012 - 2013 Tournament #3
Third tournament of the season is in the books and it was another good one. We had 28 players include a couple of first timers. Bob D made it to his first game of the year and left after about 45 minutes when Karen D made him the first casualty of the evening. He was followed out the door less than two minutes later when Greg E was taken out by Bob L. Steve S made an unusually early exit when Dave M got him soon followed by first timer Marcus H by Gary R. Next to go was another first timer Dave W when I sent him packing.
The final table was seated when Joy C was busted out by Mike S. The first to leave the final table was Karen D when Tom J eliminated her. The next to go was Janine R by Matt F. Mike S was next to go in eighth place also at the hands of Matt F. Tom J ended up this weeks bubble boy go out in seventh, ousted by Bob L. Darlene J held on to make the money when Matt F got her in sixth. The last of the first timers, Tom J4th, took fifth place taken out by Steve N. Once we got to the final four we had about the most competitive match we've ever had. We played four handed for over 45 minutes before Bob L was finally sent home by Steve N. I then sent Steve N to the rail in third place leaving Matt F and myself heads up. Matt and I went back and forth for about 40 more minutes before his Q,5 was finally able to stand up and get Matt a well deserved win.
Ron T stays atop the points but Matt and I are making up ground. Tom J is also close joining myself as the only other player to make all three final tables this season.

2012-2013 Tournament #2
Tournament number two had another crew of 26 players. Gary R was the first one out this month when Joy C sent him packing. The next to go was Bob S at the hands of Mike S soon followed by Jeff J by Christina M. Next to go was previous weeks winner and current points leader Dave D. Ron T was picked up the bonus for the knock of Dave.
We got down to the final table when Joy C was taken out by Tom J. The knockouts at the final table came very quickly. Steve N was taken out by Ron T, Theresa C by Mark L, me by Ron T and Karen D by Ron T all within 4 minutes. Things certainly slowed down from here. It took another twenty minutes before Tom J knocked out Mark L in sixth place. Ron T took out the next two players, Darlene J in fifth and Greg E in fourth. The final three played for over a half hour before Kelly M finally took out Tom J in third. The heads up battle lasted another 10 minutes when Ron finally overcame Kelly for the win.

2012-2013 Tournament #1
Well the new season got off to a great start. The first tournament had 26 players. Bob L was the first casualty of the season getting knocked out by Tom J. Kevin H was the next to go at the hands of Sharon B, followed quickly by Dave M and Gary R.
The final table was formed when Janine R was knocked out by Mitch C in eleventh place. Mitch's stay at the final table was short lived when Karl M took him out in tenth. This was the start of an assault on the final table by Karl and Dave D. Mat K then myself and Christina M were taken down by Dave. Next was Karl's turn, taking out Tom J then Sharon B followed by Dominic D.
The final three consisted of Mike S, Dave D and Karl M. Karl had a huge chip lead at this point. Dave made a little headway when he took out Mike in third. When they got to heads up Karl had an enormous chip lead. Dave just kept chipping away slowly at Karl's stack and eventually was able to overcome the odds and knock out Karl for the win.
