OST 6: Results

Recap from Skrawg:

Bronco beat McDaddy heads-up for the title.

My take is the poker Gods favored Bronco last night -- not bad beats
against McDaddy, just back luck.

I think he went all in with a decent sized chip lead with pocket 10's
against pocket jacks and lost. Then, still with a chip stack big enough
to do some damage, went all in with A-J and ran up against A-Q and lost
that one.

Recap from Porqchop:

Granted I likely couldn't have been run out of the game earlier in the evening, but I ended up going out after pushing all-in with pocket 6s (blinds were at $3/$6k) for about $30K, McDaddy called with A-K of hearts. He was chip leader with a little over $100K at the time.

Looking good on the flop when another 6 hits to make my set, and K comes to make a pair for McDaddy (so Aces and Kings alone are now no good as they float a boat for me). So it's only running Aces, Kings or hearts that can send me packing. And you guessed it, hearts it is... we don't call it "Bad Beats" poker for nothing boys.

Top Four:

1.) Bronco: $220
2.) McDaddy: $110
3.) Flops: $50
4.) Porqchop: $20

OST 7 will be played on July 17. Location TBD. If you didn't get your league entry fee to Marneus at this event, please do so before OST 7... or you're out!

OST 5: Late Results

I suck. I should have reported on this last month. Perhaps I was bitter that Marneus pulled another one out of his keester.

At any rate, here are last month's winners (hope none of them attend our next event):

1.) Marneus - $230
2.) Plains Moses - $120
3.) Jack Chaser - $50
4.) Vistor - $20

See everyone on Tuesday.
