Season 28 Week 8

Season 28 Week 8

Now this week was very different.

Last week the VPL had 15 players come.

Now Tuesday had to be the ugliest day because of the cold and snow.

I almost cancelled Tuesday. I remember the last time I cancelled a game because of snow I caught hell for 3 weeks after.

When it comes to the VPL only the unexpected is the only thing that can be counted on.

People called and asked “how many you think will be coming” I would answer a dozen tops.

With the worst day, weather wise, turned out to be the best day attendance wise.

The final week of season 28 had 21 people show up to play poker.

Before I start I would like to send out a big congratulations to Joe and Angela for having their baby.

They had a baby girl, Gianna (I hope I spelled it right). She came a little earlier than expected………..but so did Joe. LOL. Congratulations.

By the slimmest of margins (2pts to be exact) Joe squeezed out a points win for the season with a total of 107 but right behind him was Clay with 105.

For his victory, Joe will be claiming a prize of $247.00

Now back to the action.

This week there were 4 players on the payroll.

That means there were five names on the bubble list and they are as follows:

Mark, James, Tim R Clay and Janna

Coming in 5th place with pin in hand to pop the bubble was James.

That means 4 in the money:

Tim R, Mark, Janna and Clay

Coming in 4th place with a win of $26 was Mark.

With the 3 names left only one previous qualifier. Clay.

Next to exit the table in 3rd place with a win of $33 was Tim R.

That brings us to heads-up and one new qualifier:

Clay and Janna

So finishing in 2nd place with a win of $84 was Janna.

Congratulations to Clay for winning week 8 with a win of $168.

There will be 13 names at the TOC.

What will season 29 bring?

More bad weather to bring more players?

Who knows.

Good luck everyone.
