Making a Staightment

 
Despite the sunshine, a total of 67 exchanged the high temperatures for an evening in front of the monitor tackling the fifth leg of the Black Belt Poker League.

But as the sun set it was a former winner who emerged as the sole survivor, Bradley bas2604 Staight repeating his Leg 1 performance to snap up the $100.52 first prize.

The final table featured jimmyt31 and NPStars1 (who both turned tokens into cash), as well as ourkidsid who finished eighth the week prior.

8th  tandy26 -- $13.40
9th  PastiemanCnaC -- $11.72

The top 10 in the standings may boast four Purple Belts, but it's an Orange who leads the way with Jason Elysiumjay Layland bubbling the final table but earning enough points to overtake LegendKing1 by five points
