A Nak for Poker; Richard Dally Wins Leg 2


Players once again ambushed the Black Belt Poker cardroom last night as Super Tuesday hit our shores and served up its usual banquet of poker nibbles. The main course was the second leg of League VI, a chance for redemption and momentum alike as no fewer than 90 salivating poker fanatics took their seat and prepared to feast on the sumptuous delights on offer.

Black Belt Poker's representatives must have eaten prior to arrival as early indigestion quickly ensued. CEO Warren Wooldridge felt the splash of the wooden spoon bubble, whilst GUKPT Luton Champion Neil Channing and Blue Belt Owen Robinson finished 88th and 87th respectively. Instead, top honours went to Yellow Belt Richard 'nakgeela4' Dally who triumphed on his first attempt to take home $135.00 and bragging rights for the next seven days. Also finalling were League IV Champion Andy 'RedKiteBlackBelt' Brisland and Leg 1 finalist Andrew 'miggggy' Maguire.

1st nakgeela4 -- $135.00
2nd miggggy -- $90.00
3rd huddy2602 -- $56.25
4th Bambury -- $42.75
5th rattersbrfc -- $33.75
6th MrChiz79 -- $27.00
7th BoatDrink -- $22.50
8th weatherman1 -- $18.00
9th RedKiteBlackBelt -- $13.50
10th TheZartog -- $11.25

Continuing a trend that, until last weekend, had been set by Channing, miggggy followed up his near miss in the League by finishing second in the Mulligan. 33 players stumped up the $15 fee including Brown Belt Adam Latimer and 2009 Poker Million finalist Peter Vasiliou, but top dog was ultimately League II Champion Mark 'russellhansen' Brassinton who triumphed for $225.00.

1st russellhansen - $225.00
2nd miggggy -- $135.00
3rd justinsanem8 -- $90

Talking of former Champions, League III winner Adam 'JHobbit1' Saunders was the star of the 33-man $0.50 Donkament rebuy, earning himself $45.20 for a modest $2.50 investment. Second place went to Gavin 'TFMonty007' Hall whilst fellow Blue Belt Simon 'AlwaysMissing' Mairs bubbled in sixth.

1st JHobbit1 -- $45.20
2nd TFMonty007 -- $28.25
3rd diamondskull -- $18.08
4th generalshifty -- $12.43
5th Mrdroodle -- $9.04

Super Tuesday was great fun, but also highly profitable for a number of deserving players, in particular miggggy who now tops the League standings with 199 points, with Blue Belt Kevin Williams snapping on his heels like an alligator with toothache in second with 188 points. Also flying high is Rob 'SirNutFlopper' Weston who won a trip to Vegas this summer courtesy of our Quad Aces promotion. Other notables include Peter Vasiliou in 10th, Gavin Hall 14th, and reigning Champion Trevor 'cleavertrevor' Myers in 17th.

1st miggggy -- 199 points
2nd Kevish47 -- 188 points
3rd DididavidBEL09 -- 178 points
4th SirNutFlopper -- 174 points
5th BoatDrink -- 174 points
