Sydney 8 Wins Saturdays with Dr. Pauly

By Pauly
Las Vegas, NV

We had one of the best turnouts in weeks with 33 runners. The top 5 were paid. Specail guests include ObieVIP, Amy Calistri, and the Poker Shrink.

My starting table included: Ingoal, PokerVixen73, Amy, Derek, joboo002, QuanticFive, and Aaron.

This week's Gigli was Rifler. I missed the hand.

I doubled upwith A-A-x-x early on against Aaron and flopped top set. I was looking good in second place wih 2.8K. It was all downhill from there.

At the break, there were 18 players left. I was 16/18. Change100 had 6.8K and was the chipleader.

On the first hand after the break, I busted in 18th place. Cooler. I potted from the small blind. Bi Blind re-raised me all in. I called with Ks-10d-10c-8h. Trigonzo had Ah-Ac-7s-5h. We both flopped sets. I couldn't quad up and I was out.

Week 18 Final Table:
Seat 1: Trigonzo (7840 in chips)
Seat 2: L0K1 (3225 in chips)
Seat 3: holdin-ragz! (3365 in chips)
Seat 4: serNDpity (10185 in chips)
Seat 5: bayne_s (8495 in chips)
Seat 6: change1OO (4285 in chips)
Seat 7: ZClub (2390 in chips)
Seat 8: Obie34 (1350 in chips)
Seat 9: Sydney 8 (8365 in chips)

LOK1 was the Bubble Boy in 6th place.

Bayne finished in third place and cashed again. Once it got heads up, it was almost even with Trigonzo holding a slight edge in chips over Sydney 8... 25590 in chips to 23910 in chips.

Heads up lasted five hands before Sydney 8 emerged victorious.

Week 18 - Money Winners:
1. Sydney 8 - $132
2. Trigonzo - $79.20
3. Bayne - $52.80
4. ObieVIP - $39.60
