Showdown #8

Chaos in Showdownville. First let me state that the confusion as when and were we were playing #8 is mostly but not all my fault. My failure to post after we play in a timely manner has become commonplace for me and I apologize for it. I just put things off and then all of a sudden were a few days from playing. That being said our routine has always been 3 weeks from the last time we played unless you hear we cancelled. We also stated that when we cancelled a previous showdown that we would push #8 back to the Final Table date which is posted on this site for March 13th. Everybody should have been aware that we were playing on the 13th. As far as where we were playing really has nothing to do with when we were playing. Chris re-arranged his day to be able to host and quite frankly got jerked around and I apologize to him. Now let me explain the chain of events that led to us cancelling. On Friday morning we were scheduled to play at Schutter's house with a start time of 8pm. This was to give Chris additional time as host to set up. This time was also posted on the site. I received a text from Jeff that he would need a sub and If I could call Darryl Temmell for him. Jeff tried with no success to get a sub on his own. I told him I would be seeing Darryl later that evening and would ask him. I also received a text from Randy and he informed me that Chris Trate would be subbing for him. Friday evening at Mulberry's I asked Darryl if he wanted to play cards for Jeff and he told me he couldn't because he was playing in the Broffe 3 on 3 basketball tourney on Sat night with Chris Trate. I texted Randy and told him that Trate was playing basketball Sat night and couldn't play cards. Randy said he would try and find someone else. Moments later Dave Shope showed up at mulberry's and he told me that he would like to play so Dave Shope was now subbing for Randy. Jeff Kay texted me shortly thereafter and said that he no longer needed a sub and would be playing. So at around 9pm Fri night Randy had a sub and my only concern was if Wayne could get there in time due to him coaching basketball. Later in the evening around 10-11 pm, Trish Kozic showed up and informed me that Rich would be unable to play due to him having to go out of town. I'm not sure if this was a last minute thing or if Rich forgot but Rich was playing as far as I knew up until I found out he wasn't. Shortly after finding out about Rich's inability to play someone ( I cant remember who ) said that they knew that Ron and Phil would not be playing due to a football game. It was at this time that I decided to cancel the showdown. Moments later Ron and Phil walked in and I told them that the showdown was cancelled that other guys couldn't play. I informed Amy Schutter right away so he could tell Chris, I texted Randy, Wayne, Jeff and a few others and posted on the site in the morning that the showdown was postponed. I hoped that with the members I spoke to and posting on the site that all the members would get the message. Obviously some didn't and I'm sorry for that. The major problem we seem to have is that we have members who know there not playing and say nothing and put no effort into getting a sub. I have no problem trying to get a sub for someone but I at least have to know a sub is needed. The showdown would have been squashed earlier in the week if I had known the amount of players that couldn't play. I texted Wayne a few times I think on Thursday or Friday during the day and suggested cancelling when we knew of needing 3 subs. He said with 3 we should still play and so I didn't cancel. Little did I know that more subs were needed.

That's the whole story guys. Moving forward this is what we have to do. Come up with a date for showdown #8. That will finish the season. At that showdown we will have a calender and a date that accommodates everybody will be determined and we will schedule our final table. It doesn't have to be a Saturday night. It can be a Fri night, Sat during the day or Sunday. I will touch base with Wayne today and come up with a couple dates over the next few weeks that work for us. Whatever date accommodates the most players will be the date selected for #8 so please let me know your availability for any of those dates. Also in the event you cant make it and will be getting a sub you need to let either myself or Wayne know asap. My cell is 570-854-7479. If you have texting on your phone then a simple text works for me. Once again sorry for the foul up but as you can see there were many contributors to the chaos that took place Fri night. Lets move on and get the season finished.

Thank You all for your understanding and look forward to the next showdown.

TOURNEY #6

The Saturday Night Showdown never ceases to amaze. At last nights action three things happened. One of the things I was sad to see, one of the things I've never seen and the other thing I thought I'd never see. The thing I was sad to see was showdown member Kevin calling it quits and handing over his seat to Phil. It's great to have Phil in the league but sad to see Kev go. The thing I've never seen actually happened twice last night. The first on saw Chris and myself in an all-in moment with Chris having his whole stack in the pot. Chris turned over A-J while I turned over A-Q. The cards got dealt and I hit an Ace on both the turn and river to K/O Chris. Oh but wait. The wrong deck was used to deal the cards and we had to re-do the flop. My A-Q held up the 2nd time to K/O Chris. Nobody could believe it. Even when there were 2 Ace of Hearts on the board. Wild. Well it happened again with Kevin and Shane. Shane's hand held up both times to K/O Kevin. Unbelievable. The third thing was something I'd never thought I'd see. Randy Keister won. Yes he did! Randy took down the first tourney winning a chip count against me.

The second tourney's final 4 were Randy, Shane, Jeff and myself. Jeff and I made it heads up with Jeff holding about a 2 to 1 chip lead. I called Jeff's all-in with my KQ of diamonds. Jeff had an Ace and hit on the turn to take the pot.

Great night.

The next tourney is set for Feb 20

The host will be Wayne.

Arrive at 6:30!

Cards will be dealt at 7

TOURNEY #6

Cards this saturday night will be at Rich Loebs house. Please enter downstairs around the back. Cards get dealt at 7pm.

Tourney #5

First I cant find my sheet from Saturday nights action so pardon me for the delay in updating the site. I know it's in my house because I looked at it the next morning. I'm sure it will turn up and I will then update the points.

The Action:

Tourney #1 saw Shane get back in the winners circle out chipping Rich K. Rich L came in 3rd and I cant remember who came in 4th at the moment. Subs Darryl and Mike played for Jeff and Randy.

Tourney #2 saw Eric take down the win beating sub Darryl Temmel for the top prize. Darryl netted 11 points for Jeff who told me he would sign for 10 prior to the tournament. So a big yahoo for Darryl and his performance.

Tourney #6 is set for the 30th at 6:30. Site to be determined. Stay tuned.

Thats it for now. I will update the points as soon as I find my scoresheet. I hope I didn't flush it down the toilet.
