An absolute brilliant night of poker tonight in our WWPT with the most insane hand this year to date!

Tonight had its share of bad beats!  We had Morgan with K 10 up against Vinnie with K 8, both players all in and a 30k plus pot, flop came 5 Q K, turns a 2 and you guessed it, the river an 8!

However the hand of the night had to go to Sam who was all in up against Daz, Sam with Ad Kd and Daz with Ah Kh, both looking at a chop, the flop comes 3h Qh 10d, turns a 6h, both with a flush draw and the river comes and its a Jd giving Sam a Royal Flush and a monster pot of just under 60k, unlucky Daz!

Final table and our bubble again went Noel who again left his lucky socks at home.  Noel had K Q up against Hayden with 7 7, Hayden even hit trips on the river as well.

Forced to shove Vinnie goes all in with whats left in front of him with 10 10, Hayden calls with J 5, flop comes 9 7 J, turns an A and river a K, Haydens J good enough and Vinnie out in 4th place taking away $235.

Next hand and Jordy has A 9 and raises and gets a call from Hayden with K 4, flop comes 9 K 6, Jordy shoves all in and Hayden calls, turns an 8 and river a 7 and Jordy is out in 3rd place taking away $400.

Heads up and Hayden is now the big stack and Sam well below 50% in his stack, Sam then shoves with K 5 and Hayden snap calls with A J, flop comes 2 5 A, turns an 8 and river a 7 and Sam is out in 2nd taking away $655 for 2nd and of course Hayden taking out the WWPT and $1055 for a nights work.

Remember this Saturday the 2nd of June at 1pm is our Deep Stack Freeze out Tournament.  $300 buy in and 20,000 starting stack!

Fantastic night of poker again here at Dunedin Casino!

✿✿✿ANZAC Day Terminator Tournament✿✿✿

We had 18 players show up this ANZAC Day all playing for their share of a $1700 pot. With bounties in play, the competition was fierce.

The top three were paid. They were Kirby M, Gary T and Jayden H.

Flop of K-Q-J came up, Kirby shoved all-in with K-9. Jayden called and had flopped the nuts with 10-A and with only a 4 and 3 showing on the rest of the board, there was nothing to save Kirby. She still took out 3rd place and managed to get a bounty not long beforehand as well.

Gary was the next to strike. He managed to double-up with K-K against Q-Q, but it was all over when he went all-in with K-9 pre-flop. Jayden called with Q-A. Board was 5-A-7-Q-Q so Jayden rivered the boat and took out the tournament along with 3 bounties.

Congratulations to our winners and watch this space to learn about our new up and coming Wednesday tournament.

No Problemo For Tonight's Terminator Winner!

Another fun action packed night of poker as usual at Dunedin Casino.  We had 17 starters tonight with 44 Addons and 36 Rebuys making a total prize pool of $1547 plus another $425 in bounty's.

Tonight paid the top 3 places, 1st $775, 2nd $465 and 3rd $310

Hand of the night had to go to Hao who calls an all in with 7 2 up against Jeremy P with K 2, flop comes K 2 10, Jeremy well ahead and Hao around a 3% chance, turns a 7 and river another 7 giving Hao a boat and hand of the night.  Who says 7 2 is no good?

Kama eventually came back to haunt Hao when he peeps at A A and shoves and gets a caller from Simon who has K K, flop comes 10 2 4, turns another 2 and the river a K!  Aces cracked again for the night, and Hao was out in around 13th.

Final table and we had a massive 3 way all in preflop with Greg with K 4, Daniel with As Qs and Jermey P with A K, flop comes 3s 5s 7, turns a 4 and unfortunately for Greg the river a Js giving Daniel the nut flush and a double knock out taking 2 bounty's.

A few hands later and again a big 3 way all in, this time Martin with K 10 up against Hayden with J J and Chris R with A 5, flop comes 9 9 Q, turns a 2 and river a 3, Martin out in 5th.

Down to the final 4 and tonight's bubble!  We had Josh with 10 10 up against Hayden with J J, flop comes 8 3 5, turns a 6 and river a 10!  Josh hitting trips on the river and Hayden our bubble tonight taking away 2 bounty's.

final 3 and Chris has Qs 8s and pushes, Daniel calls with A Q, flop comes 3 2 2, turns a 3 and river a J, Chris out in 3rd taking away $310 for 3rd and also 4 bounty's.

Heads up and Josh and Daniel play for around an hour!  They decide to do a deal both taking $500 each and leaving $240 cash, a photo and of course the title of Wednesday night Terminator Champion to play for.  Finally the final hand
comes and Josh has A 2 and shoves, Daniel calls with 8 8, flop comes Q K 10, turns a 10 and river a 4, Josh out in 2nd taking $500 for his deal and taking 2 bounty's as well.

Tonight's winner Daniel taking away $740 for his 1st place and taking 5 bounty's away as well.  That's a total of $865 for his night.

Another great night of Poker at Dunedin Casino.

WHAT'S ON IN SEPTEMBER?

THE WEDNESDAY TERMINATOR AND $200 MONTHLY KILL BONUS

Due to popular demand, we're keeping the Wednesday Terminator going through September, and we're going to go ahead with another Monthly Terminator bonus of $200 for the most kills.  There are only 4 weeks in September so it could be over after the first few weeks if you're not careful!  Conditions apply.

CASH GAMES - $40 NLH

As most of you will already know, we are now aiming to grow our poker room by focusing on $40 no limit hold'em.  It should be a lot more amenable to walk-ins, casuals and new players, so don't forget to spread the word and bring your mates with the promise they won't be out of their depth.

SEPTEMBER DEEPSTACK - 1PM SATURDAY 30 SEPTEMBER

Our next deepstack has been set for Saturday 30 September, just under 4 weeks away.  $200 +$20 this time will make the prize pool slightly better to look at, only needing 25 players to reach our estimated prize pool of $5,000.

Happy New Year's Eve Eve!

Sad to see us have the final tournament for 2016, but that means that 2017 is nearly here!

14 players tonight playing for the usual cash, but also up for grabs for the winner there was a nights accommodation at the Scenic Circle for New Year's Eve!

The battle for the cash and the hotel stay ended up being between Kevin A., Alex G., and Morgan S. with Chris S. only just missing out on the prizes.

Alex finished in third, after being a formidable opponent for so long. He eventually lost his chips to Morgan after being pushed all-in with A10 and Morgan an AJ. The board came out 68247 but with four Spades on the board only Morgan had the fifth to make the flush.

Kevin and Morgan played heads up for a long time, neither of them willing to give in.

Eventually though Morgan went all-in after flopping a set and Kevin called with a two-pair. The turn and the river worked in Kevin's favour giving him the straight over Morgan's three-of-a-kind.

It was Kevin's chance to take the final bragging rights for 2016, well done!

Enjoy the rest of 2016, and we'll see you all next year!

Kirby takes out the November Deepstack!

We had a good turnout for the November Deepstack tournament today! We started it a little earlier this time at 12pm, so it didn't run too late into the evening. There were 22 players, and at the end of the addon period there was over $3,500 in the prize pool!

There must have been a memo that went around as many of the players were sporting sunglasses and it can't have been too easy to read the cards!

The final table was reached shortly before the third break, with Chris S. as chip leader heading in. Nine players on the final table and prizes for the top four, it meant that no one was willing to give up their chips too easily.

Andrew A. unfortunately lost a large portion of his stack to Brendan N. Brendan went all in and Andrew called. Andrew flopped a pair of K but Brendan had pocket A. Another A on the turn gave Brendan the set.

A few hands later though, Brendan had some of bigger chip stack taken off when he lost a pot to Kirby.

Brendan was run down by Jeff M. who had AJ and Brendan had AK. The AK wasn't good enough as Jeff got the boat with J's full. Jeff was also the one to take Andrew out of the tournament.

Chris' stack had dwindled but he was slowly working on building it back and both he and Kirby had the most chips when it came down to the final four.

Fighting it out for the glory was Kirby M., Chris S., Bryn N., and Jeff M. With Kirby and Chris pretty equal in their big stacks. A few spectators even gathered around to find out who would be the winner.

Bryn unfortunately was the first to go in fourth place. All in against Jeff pre-flop, but the flop was in Jeff's favour and gave him the flush. And there was no hope for Bryn.

Jeff finished third going all in pre-flop and Kirby called. Jeff had 10 9 suited and Kirby has K10. With J's on the board Kirby wins with the higher kicker. This left Kirby and Chris in the race.

Not long after the winner was decided.  After previously already stealing most of his stack, Kirby had KQ and Chris had A7. After the flop Chris was leading with pair. The board was 7 5 9 10 J, with both the turn and river working in Kirby's favour to give her the straight.

Kirby took out the top prize. Well done!

Next week, we will have our regular Wednesday 6-Max Tournament and on Friday we will begin the $10 Turbo Satellite's in to our next Deepstack Tournament!

The next one is in three weeks time on December 4th. Keep an eye out for updates.
