August 2011 Final

August final was played at the Kingshill 11th August 2011


We had a reasonable turnout for the final and 36 players sat down to play for the win.
I had the pleasure to award Brian Burleigh the league winner’s prize and Jean Hancock the best average prize.
There was no bounty for this month.
Out on the bubble was Colin Ward who fell to Mike Cox.

The final table was;
Name Chip Count

Brian Trinder

65,700

Brian Burleigh

50,600

Mike Cox

119,800

Dave Errington

69,000

Martin Carroll

Final Positions

Barry was out in 8th place having pushed all in pre flop.

Steve Hancock was 7th when his two pairs were beaten by Martin’s straight.

Brian Trinder was out in 6th.

Andy Jones finished in 5th losing to Dave’s pocket pair.

Out in 4th was the ever present Brian Burleigh.

3rd place went to the one time chip leader Martin Carroll.

This left Dave Errington and Mike Cox heads up and bit by bit Dave increased his chip lead. The final hand saw Mike push all in after the flop with A2 and was instantly called by Dave with A9 having hit the 9 on the flop. Both players ended up with two pairs Dave having A’s and 9’s and Mike A’s and 2’s.

Dave took the hand and this month’s winner’s title.

I would like to thank all players for a good game with some very good play on display.
