At 7pm yesterday evening, 39 players took their seat in the $2 No Limit Hold’em Quad Aces freezeout, all eager to emulate the success of Rob ‘SirNutFlopper’ Weston who took down event one earlier in the month. After two hours and 51 minutes, it was ‘SeanEuphoria’ Gundy who took the $31,20 first prize.

“Thanks everyone,” said Sean in victory, “Well played final table. Had my aces cracked just before the final table bubble paid, they paid off against the same person a few hands later. Unlucky Andy [RedKiteBlackBelt], great play as always.”
The Quad Aces tournaments run parallel with various milestone events in the UK calendar. This time, the occasion was the London Marathon, and if the winner of our Quads Aces Bonus Tourney were able to correctly predict the winning time, then he’d win a seat into the $250,000 Guaranteed iPoker event worth $320.
Out of a field of 14, Sandy ‘sandy1611’ Drennan emerged victorious, picking up $55.50 for his troubles.
1st sandy1611 -- $55.50

Despite Kenya dominating recent years, it was an Ethiopian who broke the white tape, Tsegaye Kebede completing the course in two hours and five minutes. Unfortunately, although Chris Leigh, Brian Gallagher, Carey Hollick and Kim Vernon correctly predicted the winning time, Sandy didn’t put forward a time, and thus missed out on the extra value. Nevertheless, he still took away those all-important bragging rights.
The next leg will take place on Thursday, May 6 and will coincide with the General Election. With one Ace each, Sean Gundy and Rob Weston both have a chance of going to Vegas if they are able to pick up one more Ace. And it’s not over for everyone else: you get 500 Belt Points for winning a leg, but if you can win the final two, then you’ll be off to Vegas for less than a tenner!
