I believe that will make you guys 1 & 2 (not sure). Good job suede & steve.

[Insane_Steve]

Hahaha, I obv get one outed for the 4/180 win. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Great game, man. Way to outplay (and completely luckbox, hahaha) that donk. (Seriously, fenske was terrible)

[merped]

yup they went 1 & 2

[rockin]

I think 3rd is the only thing left to play for.

[swede554]

that was insane...i got up and was about to throw something lol and i then i sees that a 4th heart comes on the river. i look more closely and i see it was the 8th of hearts and i looked over the board and saw the 7 and 9 of hearts there too and i was like wwwtttfffff!

[merped]

the queen on the river against his limped AA was pretty sweet too..

yea i was considering raising the riv, but i think that's a better Q, straight or air so really no need to. also i was trying really hard to finish ahead of steve obv because of the challenge implications [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

btw big fenske played really bad and luckboxed/cardracked his way to those chips throughout the FT so i'm very happy i got to knock him out 3rd and get to HU w/ Steve

OK - final results... Good job Swede - you took down both tiers! Nicely done...

This was my last challenge as host - Sherman's gonna run 'em for the next while. Hopefully he can find a replacement when he's tired up. I should be able to play once in a while, but becoming a daddy is gonna take up my time for the next while. (well - 18 years or so...)
