Christmas Poker Showdown

Hosted my first "big" game. 25$ buy-in 25 entrees. I placed 4th overall and FreeStyleJoker who was also in attendance placed 5th. Luckily we decided to pay top 5. It was a really fun game so I figured I would share a few pics. Unfortunately VeganCat couldn't make it or else I'm sure I'd be announcing her top 5 finish.

In the FreestyleJoker pict, in the upper left, looks like a card was under a chair, Someone was cheating LOL

As Villa said, looks like your luck-charm already make is "luck" in your jeans LOL

Nice to see that all come up great, Stix, and also manage to get in the cash.

I ignored villa's request for more so I'll offer up my favorite hand of the tournament.

Final Table I'm middle stacked. Got about 56$ after posting my 20$ blind. Guy to my left pushes all in for his 35$ stack. Folds to me and my 46. But I gotta call right????? lol

He turns his AJ and sees my shit and his jaw drops. Flop comes....


2,3,5

BINGO.

Rest of board misses.
That gives me the stack I need to get in the money safely and make a few plays while I'm at it.

I think that card in my pic is one of the Joker cards that me, Stix and crew were throwin around as we waited impatiently for the few hours waiting for go time, wondering if we were good enough to slice bananas... and yeah, thanks Stix, i feel that picture adequately captures my innate cheesiness.

favorite turn of events: final table of 8, one girl has about... 50% of the chips. we pay top 5, she finishes with only the "Just Missed the Bubble" gumball machine to show for it. it was impressive (and prolonged my tournament life for sure)
