The League had a nutty flavour this week as Black Belt Poker stalwart Russ nicenutter Cochran sealed his first ever title in the second leg of the current campaign.
Victory didn't come easy; and after surviving the majority of a 91-strong field, he was left with the toughest of final hurdles: defending League Champion Mark bornTOflirt Atkinson.
But despite the scale of the challenge, nicenutter maintained his composure to top the poker charts for the evening and net himself a tidy $125.17.
Also making the final table was Orange Belt Nick nickhem1 Hemming, while new faces Quasar999 and Schitzzz also featured. Leg 1 winner Paul 2LAMCHOP2 Lamonby floundered in 75th.

Black Belt Poker has been a hotbed of poker over the last several days, including the Deepstack Mulligan, which was conquered by JHobbit1 for 94.50 bucks and 50 Belt Points.
1st JHobbit1 -- $94.50 (50 Belt Points)
2nd eixip50 -- $63.00 (30 Belt Points)
3rd UliKoko -- $31.50 (10 Belt Points)
4th Touagorimou -- $21.00 (10 Belt Points)
5th generalshifty (5 Belt Points)
On Monday, ourkidsid took down the Turbo Takedown and sprinterz turned 50 Belt Points into a free month at Orange with victory in the Nifty at Nine. Meanwhile, EthanH30 bested 39 others to win the Yellow Belt Freeroll and take full advantage of the $100 in added money.
Perhaps the most sought after prize, however, comes courtesy of our recently erected East End Live satellites, in which qualifiers get to play for the lion's share of $50,000 at our next event in Stratford.
Being crowned Champion has all the elements of a fairytale, and last night Kim insider66666 Vernon experienced the first two chapters by winning a satellite token in the latest Orange Belt Freeroll, before sewing up his ticket the following evening.
1st insider66666 -- East End Live seat ($200+25)
2nd slapdash1248 -- $37.50
3rd ajaybhadresa -- $22.50
4th paul6543 -- $15.00
If you would like to repeat his feat, then be sure to join us every Thursday at 20:00 for our $30+3 freezeout. And for those with tender wallets, there are $5+0.50 feeders on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
If you would prefer to buy in directly, then you can do so by locating the tournament in the Black Belt Poker lobby (Scheduled > Black Belt Tournaments) and hitting the 'register' button on your chosen day.
But, be quick, as each day is capped at 200 runners and there's a high chance of selling out.
