Squeaky Bum Time.........
This week's action........
Much has happened in the hallowed league since the last write up, the league has been swapped a few times and Rafferty, as well as having the big 30th, enters the battle for President Spooney joining me and Gregor on 6, Gordo on 8.
Rossi cant make it, too busy with the Mid-life crisis, driving around town in the convertible with an 18 year old in the passenger seat and a box of wine in the trunk. Usual excuses from Currie and Dennis is busy looking for the toilet seats in the rat pack.
7 way, Raff, Dougie, Fran-Man, senior, Nik-Nak, Gordo and myself get busy. Discrepancies between hazy recollections of the league points sparks controversy early doors, after much deliberation and some Tech-Support a glitch in the mainframe has been rectified and Nik-Nak gets an official name change and drops 2 points to boot.
Back to business, after taking till November to get out of Negative Equity Senior makes a move all in with Fran and Raff. The betting continues revealing 8 9 J Q all spades, a raise on the river from Raff gets a call and a car crash of epic proportions is narrowly missed as Fran doges the re-raise with the nut flush, Senior shows a 10 for the straight and Rafferty shines a 10 of spades for the Straight Flush and a casino first.
Gordo avoids the spoon but gets caught on 2 big bluffs by Senior and Dougie, who nails the coffin door shut. Dougie sets the sight on the Italian contingent as fran man is next to fall.
A nice loose game, plenty of action until some bright sparks points out the remaining 4 players in the game are the top for in the league with only 4 games left, turns everything a bit tight.
With the chips getting passed around, I find a pair of Q's in the hole, the binds are doubled to twenty and Nik-Nak calls. Flop brings 10 Junk Junk, I check, Gregor raise 20, I push all in and after a bit of thought Gregor calls with 10 6 off. turn and river both shine clubs as the big man hits a flush in under the rug. I of cousre take it in my usual dignified manner and set about dealing.
Raff gets humped next by the Biggy hitting the nut flush, on the river no less and its heads up.
With Dougie taking the big buy in off next week, only a win will do, as Nik-Nak rolls over and lets the dougster rub his belly for him.
Back on top for the Resident Doctor with 3 weeks to go!!
Can Gordo shake the spoon lead? will dennis finish with more points than him? but most imoprtantly will Gordo take the IOU's from the back of his wallet and slip them back in teh biscuit tin.......stay tuned.
Till next week
I'm aff to clean my pants
