Congratulations to Journey85 for Winning Q4.7 and to Nahanni74 for Finishing Top of the Q4 TLB

Our final game of the quarter (and the year) resulted in the largest turnout yet...8 players!  and a new player Steve W. with PS screen name of wonder914 (he is a friend of Roger's).

It was a pretty epic battle especially once we got down 3-handed (between Journey85, EFEN Captain and myself)...we were 3-handed for nearly 1 hour (100 hands were played 3-handed and the entire tournament consisted of only 196 hands). 

The results of the tourney are posted in table below and the TLB points for this quarter are posted on the side of the blog.  I may have to check my spreadsheet or have an independent audit conducted, but congratulations to nahanni (me) for finishing top of the quarterly TLB.  This concludes Q4 of our inaugural online league.  We will be starting back up on January 6, 2011.  Like I said before, over the break I plan to post the point system and propose some special game formats...I'll need your feedback on the blog, so don't be shy, and leave some comments.

Congratulations to Nahanni74 for winning Q4.6

5 people showed up for tonight's game...and it was over fairly quickly (45 min) as yours truly was “hit in the face with the deck”…I don’t think I have ever had such a good run of cards before…like ever!  Broadway suited connectors, AKs, Pocket pairs upon pocket pairs, flopping sets and straights, turning boats, rivering a straight flush, etc.  Pretty sick.  One only dreams of having hands like that in a big tournament like the Sunday Million with over a million dollar prizepool.  Anyhow…I guess our $25 prizepool will have to do.  Results are below with the quarterly TLB updated on the side of the blog.

Next week will be the last game this quarter…come out to play even if it is your first game.  Then our next game won’t be until January 6th.  I will send out a reminder email…I think I will start sending the reminders out on Wednesdays.

Also, after seeing how the first quarter went, I am thinking of revamping the point system a bit so that all players get points each game (not just the top 50%) and all games will count for the quarterly TLB and yearly TLB (originally I was setting it up for top 5 games per quarter and top 20 games per year)…but I think it would be better if all games were counted.  I plan to post the details of the point system in a separate blog later.

…also…brief reminder that GPN Live will be starting back up in 7 short weeks…more details to follow…
