SHOWDOWN SHANE STYLE

The Saturday night showdown had it's 3rd meeting last saturday and anybody not named Shane should have just stayed home. For the first time in SNS history,a clean sweep of the nightly play was accomplished. The Shanester went coast to coast to collect $200 and pass go. We here that shane dropped a little coin on some poker books after the showdown #2 performance. Not a single hand. Shane went home that night like somebody just stole his Mickey Mantle baseball card. Last Saturday Shane was all smiles. "Let's play more" I think I heard. Settle down brother. Lets see what happens next week. It was also nice to see Big Tom Graham get up off the canvas for a $20 take in tourney #1. Tom played some nice hands and showed why he's in the showdown. Unfortunately tourney #2 saw Tom collecting his usual 3 points. Speeking of three points, Co-founder Rich Loeb laid an egg for a pair of 7th place finishes collecting a grand total of 6 points for the evening, " This is bullshit" Loeb was heard muttering under his breath as he left the building. I'm sure he's breaking open his copy of Eric Lindgren's "Winning the Final Table" . Cashing in during the evening was Wayne, Ronnie and Jeff. There was some good play all around and another great night. The next tourney is slated for Friday January 25th at 9pm. Danville has a home game against Milton that night and we will push back our start time to 9. The location for now will be at Rich Loeb's house unless somebody wants to host. Let me know if you do. I will update the points and cash leaders later in the week. I've been ultra busy and just haven't had the time.
