Week 11: Shawn O’Brien crushes the field and guess who was third!
All the cool kids were here this week! Note that attendance is important as the players or a substitute must play 17 of the 20 weeks in the season! There is a point awarded each week for attendance and sometimes a Main Event seat is missed by only one point!
Supporting National Savings Day
https://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/national-day/national-savings-day-october-12
This week we were celebrating “National Savings Day” which was October 12th. 6 players decided to increase the League’s savings by another $200 each by rebuying. We’ve had 76 players contribute an extra $200 so far this season. Thank you all for acknowledging this special day!
Current top 10
With this week’s win, Shawn O’Brien has jumped 9 places from 18th to 9th on the season leaderboard. A couple top finishes can pull anyone into serious contention for a WSOP Seat! Karl Man & Dan Johnson have swapped 1st & 2nd place. Alan “Third place” Thomas had his 4th 3rd place in the last 5 weeks! One more of those and he could top the leaderboard! Aaron Thivyanathan moved up from 22nd to 11th with his 2nd place finish. We are hoping, based on the current participation levels, to award 7 WSOP Main Event seats!
