Absolutely fantastic. Great stuff Verndog. Plan B was always the better plan.
and congrats to dropthehammer.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Great work Vern & Hammer, well played both.
Really good to see the Staking Board dusted off, too.
Hopefully, it will encourage others to use the Board.

The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Thanks all! Was an interesting FT that took 2.5 hrs for 10th place to bust. I had a 10BB or less stack from the last two tables so only had one move until we got to three-handed! Heads-up was fun - well played Verndog you thoroughly deserved the win. It was good to meet you and a crazy coincidence that we live quite near each other - appreciate you going out of your way and losing a bit more sleep to drop me back  Post the winner's pic you had taken please and also the trophy...if it ever turns up! Aspers have a good £220 torunament in a couple of weeks time that I play every year called the Christmas Cracker (if anyone fancies it?) - at the end of level 3 each table has a mystery prize (usually an electronics item worth around £150) given to the winner of a face-up Omaha hand. One year I won the hand and entry into one of their £300 tournies and ended up coming 6th. Aspers also dished out some free tickets to the Christmas Cracker for last night's FT, which was unexpected and generous of them. |

Winners photo attached! The trophy hadn't arrived yet apparently!
Was a great and odd final table at the same time. Very cagey and drawn out, and then a couple of mind blowing hands that really came from nowhere
Really appreciate the rail and support guys, it has been a fairly trying year for me work wise, so this result really has come at the perfect time in the run up to xmas!
I have always loved selling stakes on the blonde forums and have had some success, and try to make the thread as entertaining and as bad beat moan free as possible. And yes Tal, I'm still hatless!
