Play in

Any details on the play in? Or have I missed that e-mail?

The Eager Eight

The Final Table qualifiers are listed below. Feel free to kick them in the gonads the next time you see them.

Unfortunately, it's the play-in game for the rest of us. Feel free to take some solace in knowing that these eight players will have to wait a month to find out which play-in scrub will be embarrassing them at the championship game.

The players: Plains Moses, SpaceJam, WhoDogg, Marneus, Giggity, Jack Chaser, Hirp and Bronco

Oh yeah, one more thing... "Go Bearcats!"

OST 10: The Tenth Commandment

A commanding performance, indeed. Plains Moses parted the sea of grinders at OST 10 , likely solidifying his position (and prize) as the season 3's points leader, and potentially taking the chip lead at the Final Table.

Porqchop failed to pull-off a coup when his pre-flop all-in with A-Q was called by McDaddy with 7-8 suited. Needless to say, much sucking ensued. PChop needed a third place finish to bump Hirp from the Final Table, but finished in fourth. The final hand of the night came down to McDaddy ($98K) and Moses ($102K) all-in pre-flop with two dry Aces. In the end, the weaker kicker prevailed as Moses' 7 played with the board over McDaddy's 5.

OST 10 top four:
1) Plains Moses - $220
2) McDaddy - $110
3) The Face - $50
4) Porqchop - $20

Official results noting who's set for the Final Table and who's relegated to the play-in game should be available sometime today. The play-in game will be held on the third Tuesday in November, which looks to be the 20th. Skrawg or Porqchop will host.

My Disappointment

On the eve of the biggest game of the season, there's absolutely no chatter out there. If none of you want this that bad, then why don't you just give it to me? I'm planning on taking it myself, regardless. Bitches.

Mr. & Mrs. WormBoy Take The South

Big news coming out of Savanah this morning, WormBoy's wife (previously referred to at The Chophouse as Pageant Queen, but heretofore referred to as Captainess Cook) took the Grand Prize in Southern Living's 2007 Cook-Off. If you can't read the numbers on the check, that's $100,000!

Here's a recap, in WormBoy's own words:

Mrs. WormBoy (my edit) won the Southern Living Contest tonight. She can hardly believe it, but she smoked the competition with her ice cream dessert. I got some funny looks trying to stuff the big check in my pants. Anyway, I am sure she will fill you all in on the contest when we get back. PS Guess I shouldn't of complained so much about cleaning up after her cooking episodes in the kitchen......

Congrats to the entire clan. I'm looking forward to dining at the Chateau de Croissant when you get it openend!
