Although the turnout was a little disappointing (compared to the rest of the year) the game dynamics were very different which led to a different atmosphere and different play for a lot of people, so very interesting game.
Some things didn't change though, with Bill being all-in for the first three or four hands.... although unusually it was often against an also all-in Alex !
Jon and myself were noticeably playing very tight games but I seemed to be getting some cards to play with ! I won a fair few chips early on, but later on gave a chunk of them to Jon when he re-raised by QQ all-in with J9 and hit straight on the river !! I was quite low for much of the game after that with only around 2500 chips at the end of rebuys, although was probably around 4th in chip count of of the 10 players at this stage
It took ages for the first two players to go, and we played with 8 for a long time also (or it seemed a long time!) but the increasing blinds were starting to hurt so the players were dropping quickly. I am a bit vague on the details now, but managed to knockout Roger, then Jon taking me to the chips lead... then Darren and then Andy to win the game with time to spare ! Not sure how it happened, but was either superior playing skills or I just got lucky at the right time (know which one I prefer to think ;-) )
The league positions are looking fascinating now... and although there are only two to play, there is still a lot to play for !
See you all next time (results at http://www.statsgenie.com/Poker/ as normal)
