Blogger Tour Event 3 Result

Well since its getting late and I have some work I have to finish, the result update will have to wait for this event.

But dont worry, I will cover event 4 fully again, if they dont reschedule it again and screw over my private timetable.

Blogger Tour Event 3 My Result

Ok, this time I think we had the largest field Ive seen so far. 101 people.

I started getting on top fast, but then I got 1 horrible beat, still dont have a clue what he called flop on. Being low at this point I took a chance to get back but he flopped Quads with his 77.

Here is one of the worst plays Ive seen for a while, wonder if he was even thinking:

With 10 left here is the final table chipcount:


elc3105 was the first to leave FT after his all in on A10, got beaten by purechaos and his 99.
Quite a chaos FT with Porkrind and Purechaos fighting to be the biggest maniac at the table. ;)

So it goes without saying the next to leave was Purechaos, his flush got beat by a higher flush from natsdad. He is now in the lead with 63.000 chips

Next to leave was Quackpot, after a few bad moves he ended all in on 99, beaten by 106. After him porkrind left. his A2 beaten by Damrivers QQ.

There is now 6 left. natsdad with a huge chiplead.

mick was the next to leave. His A6 all in once again beaten by damrivers pocket pair. KK this time. 5 left.
Brodog then left. his A8 beaten by none other that Damriver again. this time with AK.
Booboy then left and yes you guessed it. Dam river again. this time beating K10 with 53 suit on a runner flush.

3 left. Chipcount:

1 natsdad 69000
2 damriver 46000
3 iyatoni 28000

Blinds at 1500/3000

3rd place goes to Damriver, all in with natsdad, his AK vs 99. K on flop, but natsdad has the luck today getting a runner str8.

After about 10 min of headsup, here is the final hand.

iyatoni Posted Small Blind 1,500

Americans banned from Poker? Not on poker.com

Seems poker.com takes the opposite stand that some other big sites like Party, WilliamHill, PokerStars ect. and they will continue to accept American Players.
Here is some of Poker.coms statements.

Poker.com Fourms

2+2 forums

other sites statements

So are you american, you might wanna consider signing up on Poker.com and by that supporting their stand in this matter.
