$40 Tournament Results
27 people came out this Sunday to play a nice easy game of poker. We all love and hate this game some times, and today was no exception for many of the entrants.
This started out eerily enough when shortly after we starting Bjorn lost with a nut flush to a full house. Pocket Aces were flying all over the place, the first to lose big with them was Jim Tallakson to Jason Hunt's pocket Jacks with a Jack on the flop. Later Roger Tangen had his cracked by pocket sixes, and Pete Bushey had his cracked by 68 on a 682 flop. With those kind of beats, it wasn't surprising to be down to 18 by the first break.
Play continued rapidly until about 12 were left and things started to tighten up. Finally Corey Eslinger was elimnated with 22 vs AT and an A on the flop for Cassie. The final table of 9 was set: Eric Coughlin, Jason Hunt, Chad Krump, Cassie, Jon Shilling, Dan Jordet, Travis McNicholas, Gina Deutsch, and Mike Pacat. Amazingly about 1 hour and 15 minutes passed before the first player was eliminated. Not without trying though. The huge hand was Travis's KK vs. Mike's JJ, when on the flop a J and a K made an appearance, but a Jack on the river gave Mike quads to keep him alive. Jason Hunt hit a Q on a flop with QQ against Cassie's AK, but with a J as well and a T on the turn, she also pulled a miracle. Gina kept on grinding it out, being down to 2000 at one point before tripling up, eventually she went all-in for 21000 with 88, but Jon had AA and had her covered to send her home in 4th. Cassie eliminated Chad and Jason on the same hand, as they both had A3, but she had more than enough chips to call and catch a pair and send Chad home in 6th, Jason home in 7th. Mike went out in 5th, Eric Coughlin went out 3rd, and after 1 hand and Cassie hits a boat, Jon was out in 2nd.
Congratulations to Cassie, and see everybody on July 16th! $60 buy-in. It appears the limit will be 32 for number of participants. Please e-mail during the week prior if you will be making it, and you will be on the list in that order.
