This will be a short post, but a happy one!

This was the last night for the payout, I apologize for the post a few weeks ago with the wrong number of weeks left information...

A few days before Christmas, so not many people again. The points leader, 2nd, 3rd (me), 4th, and 5th are all here, 10 total.

For some reason, the host decides to start with 2 tables of 5, retarded but quickly corrected as 2 people are out in about 30 minutes, one of which is 4th place! So unless the 5th place guy wins tonight, I'm assured of 3rd and 10% of the money...

Well, after some crappy play by all, a few people get knocked out and the 5th place guy doubles up twice in a row, uh oh, he's got a lot of chips. But for some reason, he starts limping every hand and throwing them away at a pretty rapid rate. I get in a hand with him and flop 2 pair. After checking, he bets huge; I come over the top all in, and after some thought, he finally folds. A few hands later and he gets knocked out by aces against his q10.

Eventually I get put out in 4th, but I collected 2 more points, not that it mattered at that point, and finish with 42 and $132 prize. Not huge, but I also get the satisfaction of knowing that I placed in points more times than anyone else. Unfortunately most of them were 3rds and 4ths, but hey, who's counting?

The final points tallies were:

1st - 63 points and $792

2nd - 58 points and $396

3rd - 42 points and $132

The new season starts tonight; I'm looking for big money!!!
