May Event #5 Results!

Last night we had a great turnout for Event #5 with 12 players. The buy-in was $40 and it paid out 4 places. Two tables of 6 started the action w/ one player on each table being blinded til they arrived. Play early on was pretty tight with every feeling out their opposing players.

Jason was knocked out about an hour into play by Chris.

Within a minute, Derrick was busted by Adam and we moved to one table.

At about 8:30pm, Adam was at it again busting a fellow bracelet winner Anthony in 10th place.

Newcomer Aris went out in 9th place when his AQoff got beat by Aaron's A6 flush.

About 2 1/2 hours into play newcomer Jim made a stand with AQ only to run into Chris' KK. The K's held and Jim finished in 8th place.

Next was Matt who's stack went up and down all night got busted by Adam to finish in 7th place.

Aaron who had his best night to-date finished in 6th place after being busted by Chris.

Bubble time! Brian pushed w/ QQ and Adam had him dominated with AA. Adam caught a full house and busted Brian in 5th place.

"In The Money"

Play was tight 4-handed w/ exception of Adam, of course. :)

Sean was card dead for well over an hour and finally saw QQ to push all-in. Trinity called w/ AJ and got a J on the flop and A on the river to bust Sean in 4th place winning his $40 back.

Chris went down next by Trinity and took 3rd place for $75. I think it was T's KK vs. Chris' AX.

Down to HU play which lasted almost an hour. A chop was mentioned by Adam, but Trinity wanted a bracelet and bragging rights. The stacks went up and down until a pivotal hand when Adam won about $20K+ from Trinity without a showdown. After that hand Adam continued his aggressive play. Trinity finally pushed all-in trying to take the blinds and Adam picked up 66 and called. Trinity had 107 for a race, but a 6 hit the flop and spelled the end for the HU battle. Trinity took home $115 for second place.

Adam became our first 2-time bracelet winner and won $190 for his victory.

I had pocket queens and Adam had pocket aces and ended up with a full house on the hand that knocked me out

Thanks...I know there was 1010 vs. 66 hand, I guess it was not that one.
