March 10, 2022March 10, 2022

Doc Brown was on fire last Thursday and seemed unbeatable, but Austin Fowler, one of the shortest stacks at the final table, ran up his stack chopping 1st place for the week with Doc. With this 1st place finish Austin moved up into 3rd place on the season leaderboard! With 11 weeks left everyone is still in the running for a Main Event seat!

Marv Karlins was all in pretty early, but no callers

GingerDave was sent to the rail when Jim “JDawg” Collins’ JJ>99 after a bricky flop.

JDawg continued rolling over the table when his KK>Victor’s JJ. They both had a set by the turn but Jim held.

Paul Ladisa was all in for 5800, JDawg called and Marv called. There was an A high flop with two spades. Marv shoved and JDawg folded. It was Ax vs Paul’s 33. A 3 on the turn gave Paul the win and a triple up!

Jason Barnett was all in and Paul called. Jason had flopped two pair with his A9 and Paul’s AQ was no good.

Austin Fowler was all in but Steve Trizis, subbing for Mark Winchell, had AK for the win.

A chop for Paul & Marv

GingerDave Miller’s 88 was no good when Jason, in a quite un-nit like move, rivered a straight.
