The fast and the furious gathered last night as iPOPS moved into fifth gear for its third event of the series.
For the $40+4 turbo rebuy, 37 Black Belt Poker players planted their foot on the accelerator including sponsored pros Neil Channing, Kevin Williams and Jamie Burland.
However, while they skidded off track early doors, two drivers remained on track and survived to the final lap: Jerome Bradpiece and Barry Styles.
A Brown Belt in the Belt-Up Rewards System, Jerome is an Omaha pro from London who recently chopped heads-up at WPT South Africa. Last night he came fourth for $6,201.60.
Playing under the alias JosseWales, Barry is a recreational player currently donning an Orange Belt around his waist. He finished four spots down in eighth for a respectable $1,778.
"I could have done things differently," he later pondered, "but felt my read was good on the night so I'm happy with the way I played in the end. Many thanks again for the railing, BBP; you guys and gals are the best."
In total, five players cashed on Black Belt Poker:
4th GONGONONGO -- $6,201.60
8th JosseWales -- $1,778.40
27th GodHatesUsAll67 -- $364.80
73rd LillJem -- $209.76
155th G3OFF -- $127.68
Jerome and Barry are the third and fourth Black Belt Poker players to make an iPOPS III final after Martin OMGDannyRudd Malone took down event #1, and Spencer dionysian Lawrence finished second in event #2.
Tomorrow is your chance to join them on their way to the bank with event #4's $100+9 No Limit Hold'em Deepstack. The event kicks off at 19:00 with a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000.
With many lured away from the monitor by the fun and frolics of a Friday night on the tiles, this could be the week's best opportunity for a nice, juicy overlay - make sure you take advantage.
