Game #3 of the CPT LDP was shaping up to be a cracker with last minute registrations before the game got underway, bugger the "God Father" of the CPT did not make it in on time.

Taking a seat at the table for the first time this season was the mighty "Jrod", after figuring out how to get it loaded on a Mac for the first time.

Blinds were set at 10min intervals with the aim to get things moving, new for this game was the "add-on" option and re-buy's. Which we'll figure out as we go ...

Game Breakdown

Jrod out of the blocks early, plenty of sets in the early play, with BigScum and tree hu$tler seeing consecutive trip 5's and trip 6's respectively.

tree hu$tler takes an early hand with set of 6's

Trying to build early stacks the hu$tler and Sloppy both try some all in action in an attempt to double up or bounce before the re-buy cut-off. During the break Jrod and Scum took the add-on action, mostly by accident, 17,000 from your account gets you 30,000 in the game.

The blinds were barely at 60/120 and we had our first casualty, Korutz gets called in by the River sitting on a couple of "Cowboys" - so the ladies has no chance.

It was not long before Benpokes bows out after going all in against Jrod with a flopped pair of 8's vs Jrods flopped Q pair.

Soon the bullets come into play, with some some heavy pre-flop action resulting in tree hu$tler and Jrod both All in on a $62k pot. Advantage Hu$tler with pocket AA's (80.7%) vs Jrod's pocket 10's(19.3%). The Hu$tler doubles up!

Next to suffer at the hand of the Hu$tler was the River pushing all in after flopping a pair of kings with a jack kicker, little did he know the Hu$tler has flopped 2 pair, so happily called.

Needing a jack that never came, Hu$tler 2 pair K's and 9's (79.4%) has the better odds over River with KJ (20.6%). Nothing on the turn or river today for the exiting River.

Sloppy.as.muff had a slow decline before dropping out at level 16 (2:33) with the blinds now at 400/800. Not making the head-to-head as he has on other occasions.

Big Scum's decline started with a loose bet against Wade pre-flop. With 48k on the table and pocket Q's, odds were very much against Scummo when Wade flops a set, and doubles up. Leaving the big scum at the bottom of the chip count. With the blinds at 1000/2000, the bullets come into play again with BigScum feeling pretty good, all-in with pocket K's, only to be outdone by Wade holding pocket A's and no joy in the community cards!

Next to drop was the previously massive Jrod, hanging in there early on and rising from zero to hero, then eroding away. With pocked 9's and looking to double up he pushes all-in pre-flop, with 120k on the table, the hu$tler can't resist - calling to reveal ... the "Bullets", yet again! Sealing it with set on the River the hu$tler takes Jrod out of the game. Taking 34k in play money - nice one Jrod.

Jrod exits with pocket 9's - facing the hu$tler making a set of A's on the river (3:54)

Head-to-head

Left at the table we have the hu$tler (143k) and Wade "meat hooks" lewis (71k), taunting the hu$tler with his slow cooking beef cheeks. Quickly taking the chip lead as hu$tler calls all the way to the river on 107k pot - with no match for Wade A high straight.

With the blinds up (1800/3600) and ante 450, the Hu$tler was finally able to take the wind from Wade's sails with the final hand seeing the "Bullets" coming back into play. Pre-flop action starts with a raise (7,200) from the hu$tler who was dealer and little blind. Wade pushed all-in, needing to double-up and the hu$tler calls. Hands reveal Wade with pocket "Ladies" (72.1%) vs the hu$tler holding A7 (27.9%) - the hu$tler then catches a set of A's on the flop and seals the deal with a full boat Aces full of Jacks. Wade exits with 51,000 chips and the hu$tler takes the win with 85k in chips.

After a staggered start - Barron has it, after having all 3 of his accounts locked-out, sloppy quickly hustles him up a login, so he can join the late starting game. The Big Scum taking a few early hands and dropping Korutz and the Tree Hu$tler down a few pegs. Korutz hang in there with a couple of glam hands.

Korutz takes a hand of sloppy to double-up!

An uneventful head to head, at times it seemed Tree Hu$ler was flushing money away, with Sloppy bouncing back several times.

Sloppy flush - does well to push Tree Hu$tler off the pot.

After some unsuccessful taunts from onlookers Koruts and The Big Scum - We finally all-in pre-flop with Sloppy sitting on KS QC and Tree Hu$tler holding AD, 3C. The flop comes down 5S AC 5C and immediately swings in the Tree's direction with 94.3% to 5.7$. With a 6S and 2C nothing changes for Sloppy and he's out. The with and WTA $85,000 goes to Tree Hu$tler.
