Showdown #5

Were looking to move showdown #5 from Saturday Dec 12 to Fri Dec11th. Please let either Wayne or myself know if this is good for you. If not Friday then the following Saturday. As for your Wisecrack Mr. Kozic yes I do get to the blog rather quickly when I do cash and I'm not proud to admit it. I usually take extra time when Shane cashes because I have a hard time supressing my nausea for the time it takes to post. I happy to see you taking your wife's advice in not waiting until the final table to collect yourself.

SHOWDOWN #4

The 4th meeting of the Saturday Night Showdown took place at uber host Chris Schutters house on Saturday night. Missing from our group of course was Kasey Lewis. Kasey will remain in our thoughts and our hearts for a long time coming. Kasey's dad Mike Lewis graced our poker league with a poker table that he had built for Kasey. An amazing table would be understating this masterpiece. Schutter had a brass plate made and affixed it to Kasey's permanent seat #1. We thank Mike for the gift and will always think of Kasey and you while playing our tournaments.

On to the nights play. The best part of tournament #1 was watching Shane bust out on the bubble. Always a treat to watch. Hoping to build upon his monster $20 of winnings through 3 Showdowns was last year's cash champ Tom. Tom did ultimately take down the first prize winning the chip count against Jeff. Over at the Kiddie table Wayne and Rich were heads up battling it out. Wayne saw 4 players at the cash table and figured he had some time when all of a sudden they were done and Wayne lost to Rich L. to a chip count.

Tourney #2 got down to the money with chip leader Ronnie leading the way followed by Eric and the shortstacked Shane and Rich L. Shane was forced to go all in as his chips were getting gobbled up by the blinds leaving Ron, Eric and Rich L. Rich was the shorstack but benefited by Eric going all-in on a bluff and being called by Ronnie. This allowed Rich L to backdoor his way to heads up. Rich battled his way back a little and went all-in with pocket 8's. Ron called and flipped over an Ace. Ron hit the Ace on the river and took down the first place prize. No Ace and these two would have been even in chips. Big Hand.

With the nights play Ronnie continues to lead the way in points and cash while the standings shuffled the players up a bit. Super sub filled in admirably for Randy collecting a whopping 4 POINTS! Way to go Phil!!

I will post time and host info for the next showdown shortly.

Thank You

KASEY LEWIS

It is with great sadness, sadness beyond words that I state on this page the passing of our friend Kasey Lewis. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers as well as his father during this very sad time.
God Bless you Kasey
