19 December 2007 (J&D's) - "And the bells are ringing out on christmas day....."

Game 1 – 6 players - (1st Lee, 2nd JJ, 3rd Bazza):

Jude (straight on flop) knocks Sharon out fisrst (nut flush draw on flop)

Dave (99) all in. I call (66) - a very lucky 6 on the flop, cremates Dave's stack, and Dave out soon after to JJ

Due to only 6 players, and us not changing the blind structure to match, we were at the max blinds at 9.30 !!!

Jude swallowed a whole lychee stone, and is waiting for it to come out in her next poo !

JJ crippled by Lee (I would have knocked Lee and JJ out if I had called with 77), but JJ doubles up 3 times in a row (actually one was a triple up)

Jude (A2) - JJ (JJ) and Lee (AK ) - All all in. 3QQ 10 3 on board and JJ monster chip leader - Jude few chips left and Lee crippled.

Jude out next hand

I double up vs JJ with full house

JJ doubles up again with KK (full house) vs Lee's KQ

Lee (A8) hits jammy c*nt nut flush vs my A10 - me out in 3rd

Lee (A10) JJ (A2) heads up and Lee takes the first prize.


Game 2 – 6 players - (1st Jude, 2nd Sharon, 3rd JJ):

In an unprecendented move, as we finished so early, both girls played a second game.

Jude (KK) hides her delight very well, when the flop shows 2 more Kings, to win nice pot vs Lee (could have been very expensive for Lee if he had have hit anything half way decent !!)

Jude won nice big pot vs me with AQ - nut flush - to my 75 flush

I (AJ) knock Dave (KQ) out hitting an Ace

JJ won nice hand vs me with AK vs A4

me (QQ) all in. Jude calls with KK (DOH !!!) and like my reversal hand last week vs Dave, the Kings hold up and I'm sent home in the -3 degrees temperature.

JJ in 3rd, and the girls heads up (who convinced them to play 2nd game ????) - Jude wins vs Sharon


Poker Rankings table for this week:

With one week to go, Dave needs at least a win to hope of victory over the year:
