Gananda Poker League

Tournament #7 is in the books and it was our biggest one of the season.  We had the maximum 30 players for the first time.  Kevin H decided he didn't like crowds and exited first for the second tourney in a row.  We didn't lose another player for almost another hour until Scott C left in round four.  The pace certainly picked up as we lost four more before the end of the fourth round.  Mike S earned 4 bonus points when he sucked out  against me busted me out in 12 place.  The hitman of the night was certainly Will M who had an incredible 8 knockouts.  Jerry T had the misfortune of being this weeks bubble boy going out in 7th with Will's help.  Matt F was able to hold on to sixth place and pick up some cash.  Mike S was next to go in fifth followed by newcomer Blake M who finished fourth.  Amazingly that gave Will his fourth consecutive knockout and an amazing chip lead.

Will got three handed with Darlene J and Jeff J with virtually all the chips.  At one point Darlene was down to 500 and Jeff had about 1500 in chips and they were both all in against Will who had the remaining 43,000 chips.  Darlene went home in third and Jeff was able to double up and stay alive.  With a 10:1 deficit in chips when they got heads up Jeff basically made two plays, fold or all-in.  In the most amazing come back I've seen in our league. Jeff managed to avoid Will when he had big hands and tangle with him when he didn't.  After about 15 minutes of heads up Jeff completed the miracle come back and knocked Will out  Congratulations to Jeff on his second win of the season.  Of course as the current chip leader and previous winner both bounties will be on Jeff's head next time.
