Jim Wins - Another TOC Seat Locked Up

Razz did not disappoint, in terms of being an extremely frustrating game. With eight people, three played extremely loosely early on – it worked out for two people but not for me. Tim was first out and escaped the Turkey trophy temporarily since I forgot to bring it to Hank’s. Bak and I were next followed by early chip leader Lee, Event Four’s Champion. The obvious favorite, Hank, bubbled, just as he had done on-line the day before in a Stars field about eight times larger than ours.

Phil battled back from life support, and the likely first out, all the way back to cashing, and finished third. Jim and Shelley played heads-up for about 30 minutes. Jim pounded her bring-ins with raises. She eventually “went with” a hand, as you often have to do in lowball, and paired low cards twice. The “Ricky Bobby” of the GPT now has two first-outs and one Championship, securing his seat in the Tournament of Champions, which increasingly looks like it will be held at his house!


So far the TOC looks like this: Hank, Baklava, Lee, and Jim. With Hank’s two titles there is one At Large bid available. Of the non-Champions, I lead in points with 38 ahead of Tim with 28, Candy at 19, and Sean at 18 (with just two tournaments).

Hank is well in the lead with 57 points to score his third Player of the Year trophy in four seasons.
