The harvest moon welcomed 16 enthusiastic players into the surprisingly warm confines of the Garage Around Back on an absolutely lovely October evening.
| Ready to go. |
| Surprisingly tasty, but oh so wrong. |
| Hot and heavy autumn action. Also slightly fuzzy. |
The green table at one point had quad 8's, but the sexy blue table had this baby. Squint your eyes and you can indeed see a straight flush.
As 11pm approached, so did the final table. Most stacks were short, but there was still plenty of poker to play.
| The good Doctor is indeed back in the house. |
The hour was nigh and the cards were nasty as the money bubble burst with Julie A. snagging fourth place and her money back.
Then there were three - with Jerry C. using his short stack to maximum effect until yours truly woke up with an ace which held. Jerry collected third place monies of a hundred bucks, plus bounty action and has now cashed in three of his three total PSP tournaments!
Finally, it was heads up time. I had about a three to two chip lead over Allen Q. who proposed that I get first place cash if he could get the seat. As one bad beat would easily reverse our fortunes, I happily locked up the first place prize, which came to over $300 after bounties. Allen pocketed $180, but he was far more excited about the trophy and the seat in the January T.O.C.
| But it was soooted! Therefore it clearly dominates J4. |
