alf13 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 Well, Alf's Room is the first to faulter out of the 3 way tie leaving Checky and Friends tied with Zimmer, with Zimmer holding an edge in the tiebreakers. Way to go PoppinFresh, you represented well. The stretch run now begins with 3 of 6 games vs. Division opponents. Next week is a virtual must win for Alf against Checky.Had a family emergency (my grandfather died) and had to attend the funeral. He was the guy that taught me how to play 7 card stud properly. Kinda like a poker mentor. I helped him with limit holdem. He was like a friend, more than a grandfather.I WILL take the helm the rest of the way for the most part.Next week is an important game for my team. There are 7 games left..half way point reached.

zimmer4141 0 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Well, I kept the pace in Week 10 beating Oh You Call I Call, so let's see if Alf and Checky can keep up in the late matches.Yangsters takes a tough loss in Week 10 and faces a must win situation in Week 11 being 2 down with 5 to go.

Lindros is a very tough player, lost to him earlier in the year. Probably still gonna come down to that Week 15 showdown. Link to post Share on other sites

Probably still gonna come down to that Week 15 showdown.It sure looks that way.As for lindros...yeah, he is a very good player. He brought out the prevent defense after that one hand.But..hey..I went with my read and I was wrong. Sure is better than just folding out of fear.One friggin card can change a match between two good players.Needless to say I want a rematch. Link to post Share on other sites

zimmer4141 0 Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 All right, now it's mine to choke away here. 1 game edge with 5 left sounds pretty big though. Link to post Share on other sites
fleung22 1 Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 All right, now it's mine to choke away here. 1 game edge with 5 left sounds pretty big though.Trust me, it's not that big an edge. I had a 2-game lead and it goes away REAL quick. Link to post Share on other sites

alf13 0 Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 A ONE game lead is big? Link to post Share on other sites
zimmer4141 0 Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 A ONE game lead is big?I guess it's just that this division has been so tight all year that to even have the outright lead feels huge. I know it's still very tight, and I have to keep winning. Link to post Share on other sites
zimmer4141 0 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Week 11, Amarillo Slim division goes 3-1.Alf and I both win, while Checky drops to 2 back in a tie with Yangsters.I like my division lead, looking forward to Week 13 showdown against Checky on Monday night. Link to post Share on other sites

I have no idea where my team stands, but I don't plan on losing any of my matches.Your team is 5-6, 2 games back in the division.

zimmer4141 0 Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Well, I'm gonna have to screw up royally to lose this one. 2 games up with 3 to play, looking forward to next week's Monday night matchup with Checky and Friends. Link to post Share on other sites
