Congrats Justin

Congratulations to Justin for winning the big tournament jackpot. Once again the curse of the big chip stack continues. That will probably the last tournament for a while. But we will be back with a player of the year award. Check back on the website for updates.

Hambones WInter Classic Ale

The Decision

Well the comish had a tough decision to make to handle the atleast three way tie. The choices seemed to be,

1. Have a play off
2. Have 2 fifth place spots adding an extra 250 chips into the final table.
3. Have the people tied split up one set of extra chips leaving them a little short stacked.

After considering all the option, I found a good compromise. Instead of two fifth place spots at 250 chips, a special sixth spot will be added with 50 less chips. If there is a three way tie for fourth the three will split the 4th,5th and 6th place chips. And with the good possibility of Jeff choking four people could be splitting the 3rd,4th,5th and 6th place chips.

Winter Classic

The date of the winter classic will be moved to February 18th. Early weather predictions suggest the temperature will be unfavorable for poker. Tickets will still be valid for the new date.

Just as predicted.....

Just has predicted there is a virtual five way tie for place. And next week watch out any one of the top seven could be in or have a share of first place.

Brian and Beth

I suspect Brian is telling Beth she needs be be more aggressive and Beth is rolling her eyes and wishing he's take is drunk ass somewhere else. I'm just guessing.

Could it be possible?

We have 6 players within 5 points of each other. After this week anyone of them could have or hold a share of the leader board. And yes it is possible to have the ever so interesting six way tie.
