A Great Read; McKelvie Tops Leg 7



It was seven heaven last week when Chris seven7777777s Brider became the latest entrant into the Second Chance SNG; this Tuesday, seven was the magic number once again as Craig ChipRead77 McKelvie won leg 7 of the latest Black Belt Poker League.

ChipRead77 topped a field of 89 that included Green Belt Richard generalshifty Hurst (70th), Mulligan terminator Kevin S0lution Birt, and even Black Belt and Captain Carp Sam KODDZILLA Razavi. ChipRead77 won $122.41 for his troubles, toppling reigning league Champion Mark bornTOflirt Atkinson heads-up to capture the crown.

1st ChipRead77 -- $122.41
2nd bornTOflirt -- $82.32
3rd JHobbit1 -- $62.30
4th pbsef81 -- $42.27
5th babycakesx -- $31.15
6th TheSimian -- $23.36
7th FlopTheNuts77 -- $18.91
8th 99Ranny -- $15.57
9th WiseOwlBB -- $13.35
10th GunnerBish -- $11.12
11th ACarey -- $11.12
12th clevski1 -- $11.12

The final table lineup also featured the umpteenth appearance of Adam JHobbit1 Saunders, who is taking the 13th League by storm and is a stroll-in-the-park away from cementing his free seat into the East End Live. In fact, only Armageddon can scupper his plans as he pulls into an even more crushing lead with just one leg remaining.

Former League Champion Mark 99Ranny Ranson is also miracle-dodging, whilst the third seat is still wide open with any one of Stewboi, kippery, ZoeRiZZ0 and the other members of the top 10 still in with a realistic chance of securing a last-ditch train ticket to Aspers in April.

1st JHobbit1 -- 725 points
2nd 99Ranny -- 646 points
3rd Stewboi -- 606 points
4th kippery -- 591 points
5th ZoeRiZZ0 -- 590 points
6th BoraBoraBoy -- 571 points
7th clevski1 -- 566 points
8th Sarannedipity -- 566 points
9th WiseOwlBB -- 562 points
10th TheZartog -- 557 points

11th doochats -- 542 points
12th paul6543 -- 533 points
13th adygolf -- 531 points
14th Mrdroodle -- 528 points
15th TheSimian -- 522 points
16th AlRawling -- 522 points
17th BubbleCloud -- 522 points
18th bornTOflirt -- 522 points
19th nickhem1 -- 516 points
20th Essxhg -- 516 points

Of course, it's not do or die, as we're hosting three weekly satellites into the East End Live with the last few days creating four more victors, one of whom was JHobbit1, whose impressive form means he will have the luxury of selling one of his seats and bringing a little spending money to Olympic Park.

The meat of the week's action has been consumed, but there's still some dessert to come with tonight's Yellow Belt No-Lose Deepstack at 20:00, and the $30+3 Samurai Freezeout Satellite 30 minutes later at 20:30.
