Last week, twenty-five 'late night degenerates' came out to the virtual felts of Lock Poker for the grand event we call the Impromptu. No doubt many of them with hopes of taking down the host, and winning big with the 'progressive' bounty posted by NotBatgirl.
The bounty started at a dollar, and a dollar was added each time someone other than me went out. So ideally, beating me heads up would be worth maximum value. And by the time we got down to a final table with these nine fine players, the bounty exceeded first place money . . . .
As you can see, coming to the final table with only six big blinds, I was in jeopardy of going out quickly. But peedidy would go out first, bringing the bounty up to $18. I would finally succumb to a lack of chips, getting it all-in preflop against my cohost, T bone9. who would win the race and knock me out in 8th place, taking the bounty money in the process!
As the table whittled down, T bone9 would find herself going out on the bubble in 4th place, but still the big winner of the night. That left Halfcent2012, WinJStar1, and burkey76 to do battle for the cup. Halfcent2012 would be our third place finisher
To win the coveted Impromptu Cup is always a challenge, and our heads-up competitors both wanted the win. The heads up match was awesome to watch, and it would all come to a climax on this final hand . . .
Our congratulations go out to burkey76, who wins his fourth Impromptu title and joins some elite company in that group. And a big hand to WinJStar1, so close to her first Impromptu win. I'm sure there is a Cup in your future! And a big thanks to everyone for coming out, and continuing to make the Impromptu the great game of the week!!
