Gordo turns Maroon!!
This weeks action.......
As we head toward the penultimate game of the season, battles open up all over the table. With league leader Dougie taking the week off Gregor, Raff and myself set phaser's to kill.
Gordo sets his missile lock on fellow spoon contenders Nik Nak-Raff and myself. Whilst senior tries to get himself out of the sinking sand and get off the bottom of the table.
Players come in the form of Raff, Gordo, Nik-Nak, Senior, Jason, Colin amd myslef. A special appearance from the Lizard King himself, who battles through the firey baracades of The Fort for the last big buy in game of the season.
Gordo dodges a bullet in the first hand as I slow play poker 10's, the turn and river is checked down and the big man resits the urge to push the first stalk in to the middle.
J-Boy gets off to a flyer and shares the chip lead after out flushing myself. With so much tension as the pot holds £160 and the season drawing to a close nobody could afford any hiccups. Nik-Nak, after squandering the first stalk gets tied up with Gordo as the battle of the Spoon takes he spotlight. The life life long Hibernian supporter shouts for the hearts as Nik Nak calls with the flush to the K gordo has the nuts to teh A, Nik Nac takes the spoon leaving him in contention for the Trophy.
Raff breathes a sigh of relief, with the spoon out of the way he can go all in in peace and gets the pocket bullets from the Lizard Man.
Senior tries to get himself out of negativity and after a raise of 20 from yours truly he goes over the top with AQ all in. A call with pocket K's holds out leaving the big man to relax with some quality tunes, care of William Gallas who must have visited the Mouse Trap at the weekend and forgot his I-pod.
Colin is next to Dwindle and has the remainder duly removed as the Lizard Mans takes another scalp.
J sets about spending the chips and heads all in with 10 J suited against the Chip eater Gordo, the flush doesn't come and its a swift exit for him and senior in the the X-Wing Corstorphine Express.
3 way at 12:30 turns into a messy affair and after an hours play, 2 German sausages with mysterious German sauce and some fine cheese washed down with some free booze the Lizard Man bows out leaving me and Gordo to go heads up.
After a messy battle for the bubble, there's no time for heads up, All in first hand me with A5 and Gordo with 10 J, a 10 on the flop gives Gordo the lead, no outs come from the deck as the former Hibernian supporter takes the 3 points and the £100.
Another Change at the top, one point separates the battle for the Spoon, and Gordo takes a lead over Dennis in the battle for a Euafa cup spot!!!
Till next week.....
I'm William Gallas "have you seen me I-pod?"
