99Ranny Hits the Mark in Leg 4

With the inaugural Orange Belt Freeroll and the London Live Vegas Freeroll both hitting Black Belt Poker shores last night, it will have been easy to forget that we were graced with another League event this Super Tuesday as Leg 4 marked the halfway point of this season's venture.

Heading into the Leg, only four points separated the top three spots, meaning that the game was still wide open with numerous players still in with a shot of not only hitting the top 10 and securing a prize, but snapping up that number one spot and earning the maximum shares in our Black Belts in Vegas.

Despite the fierce battle at the top of the tree, this occasion saw an old face come out smelling of roses as League VII Champion Mark '99Ranny' Ranson headed the 64-strong field, his closest contender being Barry 'JosseWales' Styles who just missed out in second.

Whilst the unfortunate bubble boy was Papa 'Bambury' Wooldridge, the final table was graced with the presence of UKIPT Brighton Champion Jamie 'StilettoMafiosa' Burland (who also finished third in the Vegas Freeroll) as well as a number of other tough competitors.

1st 99Ranny -- $102.40
2nd JosseWales -- $70.40
3rd sprinterz -- $43.20
4th 45683ah -- $32.00
5th AngelVickie48 -- $24.00
6th tristiano -- $19.20
7th StilettoMafiosa -- $16.00
8th Wally19 -- $12.80

Although he was unable to impact the final table, Kim 'insider66666' Vernon's 21st place finish was enough to see him hold onto the top spot with 312 points, whilst CroadYuk hung into second with 306 points. StilettoMafiosa's seventh place finish, however, saw him leapfrog over mork1971 and latch onto third with 293 points.

1st insider66666 -- 312 points
2nd CroadYuk -- 306 points
3rd StilettoMafiosa -- 293 points

As it stands, those three will be playing the WSOP Main Event vicariously through our Black Belts, but still in contention are the following motley crew, all braced like coiled springs and ready to pounce:

4th mork1971 -- 289 points
5th ScarredGenitals -- 266 points
6th rattersbrfc -- 261 points
7th BoatDrink -- 256 points
8th sandy1611 -- 248 points
9th UliKoko -- 242 points
10th JimmyTheBhoy -- 243 points

Below them - and just inches away from the prize zone - are an eclectic bunch of Belt holders, the likes of Green Belt Richard 'nakgeela4' Dally, Orange Belt Trevor 'TeeDeeEye1' Ingman and Purple Belt Sean 'bolden1212' Bolden all mustard keen to scale the ranks and break into those top 10 slots.

11th nakgeela4 -- 241 points
12th tristiano -- 237 points
13th Mrdroodle -- 235 points
14th losbert40 -- 234 points
15th Stewboi -- 231 points
16th stevegw -- 210 points
17th TeeDeeEye1 -- 206 points
18th generalshifty -- 206 points
19th bolden1212 -- 206 points
20th pbsef81 -- 205 points
