GT the Friendly Shark takes the PLO Victory.


It was our last Thursday tournament for a while. We had 12 people turn up, all playing to win their share of the prize pool which got to over $1000. 
Our top three places were paid. They were Gary T, James H and Sammy C. Sammy was all-in shortly after knocking out the bubble. He had 3-6-Q-Q. James called with A-9-7-Q. The board showed J-J-K-10-7 and James took the hand turning the straight.

Gary was all-in and ending up winning with a pair of Q's which shifted him to top stack. So next hand James was all-in blind. He had 6-K-J-4, Gary had 9-8-J-8. Board of 7-7-9-A-9 gave Gary the set and the victory. He will remain PLO champion for a while as we say goodbye to Thursday Tournaments for a while.

We have a lot coming up in the way of satellites and deep-stack tournaments so keep your eyes peeled for all the info.
