With WSOP shares in our Black Belts dangling like a treacle-laced carrot, 82 hopefuls once again hit the virtual felt in a bid to scale the ranks and become the League IX Champion. Leg 3 was only one slice of that pie, but victory would undoubtedly propel the winner to a much more formidable position and give him (or her) the optimum chance of turning a minor investment into a monstrous pot of gold.
Swimming among the field were a number of sharks, including Black Belts Neil Channing and Richard Ashby. Although they fell at early hurdles - coming 70th and 63rd - two familiar names from last week hit a second consecutive final table: Ian 'mork1971' Goodwin and Kim 'inder66666' Vernon. Also featuring was Chris 'CroadYuk' Roadknight who came third in Leg 1.
Despite their presence, it was Geoff 'G3OFF' Douglas who finished top of the class, his homework paying off to the tune of $123.00. Detention went to Leg 1 winner Patrick 'course00' Scott; he bubbled in 11th and, as Anne Robinson would say, "Goes home with nothing."
1st G3OFF -- $123.00
2nd Elysiumjay -- $82.00
3rd themackem1968 -- $51.25
4th mork1971 -- $38.95

7th CroadYuk -- $20.50

9th Stiletto Mafiosa -- $12.30
10th RykanShadow -- $10.25
Insider66666's second final table in as many weeks was certainly influential as he now heads the standings with 268 points. However, the top three are packed in tighter than cans of sardines in a lift with just four points separating them: CroaYuk in second with 266 points and mork1971 a gnat's nostril hair behind with 264 points.. Meanwhile, UliKoko leads the chasing pack on 204 points.

With 10th and 11th place boasting precisely the same score, it seems unfair not to give a shout out to Andy 'BoatDrink' Butcher as a result of a technicality. In fact, while we're here, let's honour the next 10 players, all of whom are lurking patiently and waiting for the opportunity to pounce into the 'prize zone.'
11th BoatDrink -- 204 points
12th LagRat02 -- 196 points
13th JimmyTheBhoy -- 195 points
14th CareybearBBP -- 193 points
15th Mrdroodle -- 193 points

20th TeeDeeEye1 -- 172 points
The results for the Mulligan are in; this week's winner was Simon 'ourkidsid' Herrick who magically turned $15 into $75. Also taking a stab was Blue Belt and UKIPT Brighton Champion Jamie 'StilettoMafiosa' Burland, who, sadly, finished penniless in fifth.
