Just had a weird experience.
Re-started the tournament after the first break and I was moved tables.
I got the usual message saying "You have been re-seated etc".
But also a message saying "You have finished the tournament in position 98 of 126"
Yet I am still in with 7k chips and still playing.
WTF is going on with this site???

[MintTrav]

Two hours in, so expect the crash soon.

We have 8/50 left, so anything could happen. None right at the top, but several bunching just outside the top group.

10 RedAxeWound
11 skippylppl
12 nicecold
21 crow_
33 wightline
40 hhazeldene
42 ScalperDave

The pace is picking up. 39 left - we have 7.

7 crow_
8 RedAxeWound
9 nicecold
14 skippylppl
27 BitofaTart
28 hhazeldene
35 wightline

nicecold and RedAxeWound both final-tabled the last APAT live tournament and look like they could repeat that feat here.

Only because he was my cheerleader - and he had 5%.

[MintTrav]

BitofaTart & wightline gone. We have 5/32:

8 skippylppl
14 nicecold
15 RedAxeWound
16 crow_
26 hhazeldene

Spartan735 & Talllady have done it.
_Hallstar & RaggieMaggie have done it.
Can skippylppl & hhazeldene become our next couple to both final-table the same tournament?

[MintTrav]

Dave Howard crashes from FT position to out 31st. I can"t believe it. Who could have foreseen that possibility with the solid steady game he plays?

Meanwhile, Colin James comes to the fore - it"s 6 crow_, 7 nicecold, 14 skippylppl, 19 hhazeldene.

26 left. Tense, innit?

[dwh103]

I open to 925 with JJ, guy to my left jams for 15k.

Probably doesn"t have me beat? Oh wait...

Gl all. Nicecold out, muppet.

[MintTrav]

Helen (15th) & Justin (12th) Hazeldene both cashed & scored points for Solent:

Final table now and we have one left, but he"s in 1st place - Colin James.

It looks like 1st & 2nd are very close between West Midlands & Sunderland, with WM likely to win.

We are neck & neck with Liverpool for 3rd & 4th places.

Any of the 4 teams could still win, but it would require an amazing series of crashes from WM for Liverpool or Solent to take it.

[MintTrav]

Solent now guaranteed 3rd place. Colin smashing up the table.

[senseitokes]

Finished 4th so think we finished 3rd. Was smashing it then mistake followed by mistake followed by comeback followed by donkilicious play buggered it all up really

[MintTrav]

Yep, third place and a crucial team point. WP Colin; also Justin & Helen. I keep saying it - the high scores are obviously crucial to be in the shake-up but the lower points usually make the difference between the places, so well done all three.

With the way Colin (crow_) played tonight, along with RedAxeWound & nicecold; also miniminttrav and Esc2Victory in previous weeks, it is clear that we have some very aggressive players in the team. Sometimes they crash, but I am confident that we will have some victories in future games. We also have players who cash and score points regularly, which we also need, so I believe we have the right mix to win games and give West Midlands a tough time in this league.
