Last night, anticipation and excitement lingered in the lobby as players gathered on Black Belt Poker for the commencement of Leg 3, League X. The $5+0.50 freezeout resumed at its usual time of 7.30pm, and this week it attracted 74 runners.
The last two legs were claimed by Yellow Belts, but this time around, it was White Belt 'yZZZZZx' who took the spoils, pocketing $118.40 and 99 league points in the process.
Each League, we give away Belt Points for the top 10, but only if you're Yellow Belt or above...
So, 'yZZZZZx', if you're reading this, go to the Black Belt Poker homepage, click on 'New Members' in the Yellow Box at the top, enter your details and once everything is in order, you will automatically become a Yellow Belt. Simples! All backdated points earned will be credited once you're linked.
Now, back to the Leg 3 round-up...
As everyone knows, most of our Blue Belts and above are away in Vegas for the World Series of Poker. Unfortunately, Tom 'Werrrrd' Drew couldn't make it, which may also be bad news for the rest of the community because it looks like he's got his sights on League X glory.
The Blue Belt, who also won League VII, has been an equally consistent force this time around and last night continued that run with a second place finish for $81.40 and 91 points. That has now propelled him to the top of the overall league standings!
Meanwhile, Yellow Belt Dave 'TopMossley' Hulmes claimed a respectable third place to win $49.95 and 87 points.

After Leg 3, the king of the castle is now Tom 'Werrrrd' Drew, who currently sits on 249 points. Hot on his tail are League II Champ Mark 'russellhansen' Brassington and Zoe 'ZoeRiZZ0' Orton-Jay, who won her first ever league leg last week. They are both tied in second place on 248 points. Yellow Belt Jonathan 'RykanShadow' White has been lifted to fourth in the overall standings courtesy of a fourth place finish. He now has 228 points.

An hour later, 12 players entered the Deepstack Mulligan for $15+1.50, but only three were paid. Here are the results.
1st mutesuperstar -- $90.00
2nd paul6543 -- $54.00
3rd bagpussrocks -- $36.00
Last night's Leg 3 victory now means that 'yZZZZZx' is placed 18th in the top 20. Our mystery winner wasn't alone, however. There were also two other White Belts in the tournament: 39th place finisher 'MajorMustard', and 'huggybear209', who exited 63rd.
