Season 19 Week 8

This is it! The last chance to qualify for the TOC.

This week was the week to play at the VPL.

This week is was the week to determine who would win points and who would win the 2nd spot to qualify for the TOC.

This week the VPL hosted 15 players who played their last chance for the TOC.

This week had two races: one for the points and one for the 2nd chance to qualify for the TOC.

This week TC came into the tourney with the lead of only 3 points ahead of George.

This week determines who gets the money for the points. The winner is......................well this will be disclosed later in this blog.

okay without further interruption, we start at the bubble.

4 players: Steve, Bill, James and Jason.

This group included 3 previous qualifiers.

Someone had to pop the bubble and that someone was Steve. That's right, Steve bowed out gracefully in 4th place.

Money time: Jason, Bill and James

This makes this very interesting because Bill and James have both previously qualified.

This is how it went down:

James was the dealer.

James went all-in on the button. Jason in the small blind also goes all-in. Bill in the big blind calls both all-ins.

Pre-flop Bill was chip leader.

Went the final card came on the river, it was Bill who won all the chips.

James ended in 3rd place with a win of $38.

Jason finished the tournament in 2nd place with a win of $64.

Bill had them both out chipped from the beginning and won the tournament by taking them both out. For his efforts, Bill won the chip and $128.

Okay back to the points: it ended up that TC went out 3rd. George went out in 6th. At this point, they are tied in points, however, Joe could get 4th place (12 points) to win.

This didn't happend, Joe went out with 9 points.

This means that TC and George split the points pot. The pot is $243.

Each will receive $121.50.

Excellent Season. Congratulations to everyone

Jason qualified for the TOC in week 8.

There are 12 qualifiers for the TOC.

Good luck to everyone.

Hope to see everyone for Season 20.
