Bearded Mike waited for the smallest prize and fewest number of points to finally win a tournament. That included an almost-Baklavian comeback from 3750 in chips with 800/1600 blinds. Lee went out on the bubble after some tough beats that included doubling up Bearded Mike from his short stack.
Pablo took fourth with just about the minimum buy-in (BI + add-on). Blakava's third-place finish was his second cash and catapulted him to first place with 74 points. Hank's sixth-place finish was enough to stay within striking distance with 68 points. Although Big Jim squandered a huge chip lead he maintains third place with 57 points. Given that he referred to The Nuts as a "7-5," it just might be possible that this was his first triple draw tournament.
In the friendliest heads-up match played in Hank's game, Sean started with a big chip deficit and ran an 87 into a Number 2. Second-place points put Sean in the number four spot for the season with 51 total points.
The Play of the Day goes to someone who wasn't there - Ron, who paged Hank, who was on call, at exactly 2pm. I have a picture of a concerned Hank calling in that I'll post later. Great play, Ron!
