A blizzard of a game....

Five playa's braved the wee bit o snow this past weekend for an extra game at Kodiak's - all in an attempt to dethrone the Zeus. With a late start, awaiting the four wheelers from the East and West sides to show, it still proved to be a good battle. Another heads-up match between sibling pigs, and a good lil pot for the winner.

Non one completely fell by the rebuy at 11, but we had two rebuy a bit - Kodiak and Rico. Nothing too much, but it served their purpose for sure.

There were some big catches and saves, and some small pots but as we have certainly noticed of late, people are actually trying to play this game.

First to fall was the east side, Bacon taken down by the west side, zeus. Zeus held KK vs Bacon's preflop all-in move with KQ. The Kings held and we were all fearing another night of the Zeus.

Especially when the next to go was Kill, also by Zeus. Kill moved all in with KQ suited. Zeus calls in the big blind with A8....and the high card was looking to hold, and then to make it even sadder, an Ace fell on the river.

Three left....and a battle ensued but soon, Zeus was broken, demolished, squished, trampled on, and eventually flopped on the floor.

The real hand that took him out, although he was left with about $4, was vs Rico. Zeus played it well - flopping trips. He had 10-5 and Rico held A2. The flop looked like 10-10-7. Zeus didn't bet big, Rico thought he was good. And Ace on the turn and Rico was feeling secure and made his all-in move. Zeus, naturally called and with trips, its looking good but then WHAM WHAM, and ace on the river.....heh heh...

And about 3-4 hands later, Kodiak pushes all in preflop after Zeus made a raise. HE had collected some blinds and moved a bit up....He flips his "best hand" pocket tens...figuring Kodiak was desperate. The WHAM she flips pocket rockets and Game over Zeusy boy!!

Then it's a heads up rematch for Kodiak and Rico. Last time, she played at about a level 1 out of 10, getting pecked at until she was out. Bleah. This time, she moved to about a 4. While she caught cards and moved "all-in" over and over, she got bluffed a bit and finally was called by Rico with AJ to her suited JQ and though the Jack hit, his kicker kicked her arse. Dang!

Some quotes,

"That's the sound of the worms eating my nuts" Zeus

"Notorious P.I.G." Kill

Antoher game is scheduled for this weekend and it looks like, as long as things hold, we have the return of some long lost playa's coming in - Little Dot and Mike the Mouth. God help us all........

And Kodiak has the cameras prepped.....:>)

Kodiak out~~
