RPO Event #14 Results in a Clean Sweep

Five played but only one sent the other four to the rail in tonights RPO Event #14.

Here are the results:

5th- All In Reed (Sean)
4th- mukraven (Matt)
3rd- OutlawJesco (Trinity) Won $5.00
2nd- car_guy_67 (Brian) Won $7.50

Champion: Harley1998 (Jeff) Won $12.50

For the second week in a row Harley1998 (Jeff) won again. Dominating the chip stack for most of the evening. The cards were stacked his way against all 4 of his take downs. For the second time in RPO history the winner knocked out all seated players (OutlawJesco did it in Event #10) .

Harley1998 started the take down with All In Reed by flopping quad sixes. Shortly there after he eliminated mukraven by flopping two pair with QK. About 10 minutes later Harley1998 raised about 3x the BB and OutlawJesco woke up with a playable hand (wired tens)in the BB and decided push all in. Harley1998 called with AxKd. Although OutlawJesco flopped a set Harley1998 still had an inside straight draw and a possible backdoor flush draw... He got the back door diamond flush to knock out OutlawJesco for 3rd.

Now with a dominating chip stack (his chips had chips)against car_guy_67, heads up play began. car_guy_67 fought like a trooper but could not manage to get much going, but he did manage to leave with a nice parting gift of $7.50.

Final Hand: Harley1998 (AA) against car_guy_67 (J8d). The Aces held up to give Harley1998 (Jeff) the win. and $12.50

Ship It Baby!!!

I may have lost in tonight's RPL event on FTP... but I ended up taking down the $10 Daily Double B on FTP tonight for almost $2,ooo. I outlasted over 900 people. Plus, I get a bonus for cashing in both of the Daily Doubles tonight... not sure how much that'll be yet.

RPO Event #13 Results in Broken Ties

The Usual Six Suspects signed on tonight for Event #13.

Here are the results:

6th- car_guy_67 (Brian)
5th- Chef106 (Adam)
4th- All In Reed (Sean)
3rd- mukraven (Matt) Won $6.00
2nd- OutlawJesco (Trinity) Won $9.00

Champion: Harley1998 (Jeff) Won $15.00

Another long game was played. Of course not everyone got to play the long version. The points leader car_guy_67 was taken down first this evening. And after an almost out first to big come back to go out second was Chef106 when All In Reed caught a FH on the river and got his revenge for a suckout that Chef106 had made earlier. OutlawJesco took All In Reed out when he reraised All In Reed all-in after the flop and caught his lucky flush on the turn. Reed finished 4th aka Bubble Boy.

Mukraven hung around for some time even though he had not caught cards all night. But when it counted he caught Harley1998 with the right hand and mukraven was able to double up. But in the end mukraven had his wings clipped and went home third.

Heads up play between Harley1998 and OutlawJesco continued for quite awhile (93 hands) Harley1998 dominated for the most part, with OutlawJesco going way down and bouncing back to take the lead for a short time. With the blinds so high the chip lead bounced back and forth. Again OutlawJesco went down and bounced back up. These two were battling for more than tonight's win but also to untie their online points. Both players played exceptionally well in the heads up match. But in the end Harley1998 held on to what he started with and that was the chips and the win.

Final Hand: Outlaw w/ two pair Aces & fives and Harley w/ a flopped 5 high straight.

A Day of Sadness...

Pray for the Virginia Tech family. A friend of mine's son is a sophomore there, but luckily he's OK.

No one is running away with either POY race at this time. A win can propel anyone several spots, so everyone just hang in there because we have a lot of events left to play. Brian and Matt are showing consistency by holding the top 2 spots in both rankings.
