Glass Jaw takes the win trip 7's on the turn

Some clasic head to head play here for River and Glass Jaw. Glass Jaw making a set on the turn held up well against Rivers unsuited over cards. Not on the River this time fella - your luck has run dry tonight.

There were plenty of chips on the table tonight with the lead moving around a few times. Still seven seats full until late in the game when the "Poker Barron" calls "J-Rod" all in and gets shafted.

"River" playing the home table advantage won a few one the river, so he was true to form. As expected the "Turkish Terror" was playing his "A-Anything" - but all in on A 2 just would not cut it against the "Rivers" made hand.

Glass Jaw then made short work of "Kurac" - and we then had our first dealer for the night. Next up was "Cptn. Scuzzie" - raised hard in an early position. River called. Then flopped a J 10 2 pair - so pushed all in(12k+). "River" calls drawing a king high straight and a flush ... you guessed it - he makes the straight/flush on the river. Crushed!

"J-Rod" put up a good fight and played some loose cards to get back into the game. But as the blinds went up "J-Rod" felt he had to make a move and pushed all in on nothing and was called.

Head to head play started after we chipped out all the small stuff and the "River" eased springs. The power moved "Rivers" way after he made AA on the turn against "Glass Jaws" pocket 10's. But "Glass Jaw" still well stacked managed to pull it all back for the win. Nice work.


River takes the first hand head to head ... A K vs 10 10

River makes an A on the turn. Glass jaw on the back foot.

J-Rod did not pick a winner this hand ... All in on 7 4

J-Rod doubles up in a tough all in call against Glass Jaws pocket 8's

Scum's flopped 2 pair J 10 - is eaten by the River. All in = fail!

People - we have a dealer, Kurac - out.

Night night Terror ... Tough call ... A 2 won't cut it.

Poker Barron takes a ride on the rod - he calls all in on J-Rods flopped straight

Blinds are up $400/800 and play is heating up ... Kurac is getting his mojo back!

Starting the back end of season 4 ... round 6.

Round 6 will play out tonight at the home of "the River", I'm sure he'll be working that home ground advantage targeting a win after last weeks hot form and 2nd slot.

There a few hot contenders that will be missed this round. "Goldfish" still commited to his US match racing is out for a second week running. "Grumble" will also be missed - he has had to pull pin due to external pressures from "Jimmy the fish" and a few other leg breakers that he's up to his eye ball with. Also, on a more sobering note - "Johnny Cash" has had to re-divert his focus tonight to a family matter, good luck Johnny - I hope all is OK with your sister.

Returning to the table tonight is the "Turkish Terror" - after his trip back to the home country and 2 weeks off the tour. He is likely to be down game time and a bit vulnerable - keep an eye on him, he'll play "Ace - Anything" and will call it all the way to the river.

So round 6 will be contested by a total of 7 tonight ... and as with previous weeks, Cptn. Scuzzie will be playing each and every one of you ... aka the table.

Het the game begin ...
