A full table +1 of superheroes pitted their poker skills against each other, the numbers may be dwindling somewhat but on the bright side, we now have the perfect amount to start a football team!

Congrats to Gooner AKA Mandy who was playing from Nans account last night, she may support a questionable football team but nobody can question the courage and skill she showed last night on her way to securing her 2nd title of the year and 7th all time main event win. Superb Display Gooner Cool

Gruffe put up yet another mean performance whilst snatching 2nd place on the 2008 leaderboard in the process, BetWoody have shortened his odds drastically due to a huge influx of money for him overnight; he continues to chip away at my lead and I'm now starting to sweat a little...stop playing so blooming well Gruffykins! Top notch performance Gruffe Win

Amy ensured the girlies took home the lions share of the spoils with an assured effort that gave everyone a taste of what her game is all about, reading her opponents like an open book and vast reserves of courage, she used all assetts to great effect last night and was well deserving of reward. Nicely done Amy Win

Many thanks to all who played in the main event and after party Kiss (Thanks Very Much!)

The OLBG Poker leaderboard has been updated

Thursdays tournament is open for registration, support the cause! Very Happy
