Drop Final - late entry

So no poker for me as Football training commences again. I do bump into Moocher on the ferry home fresh from final table success at Drop. With a beer or two inside him he seems both chuffed and perhaps even a tad cocky. Table talk, all-ins aplenty and psychological warfare with his opponents seem to be his strategy. Doubling up in the first hand by calling an allin with 78 against 63 (against the guy that took him out with 86s against Moocher's pocket 9's at his last attempt). With a final entry ticket in the bag Moocher went allin blind on every hand until called so he could catch the 11.30pm ferry.

He also managed to take out Brendan (Mr Cocksure) of earlier Drop sessions. Calling an allin with JJ and catching him on a bluff.

So a well done to Moocher who joins Bigshot for the chance to win a trip to Phuket. I suspect he may not have made too many friends that night though having given the dealer a hard time and bar staff for their over-priced drinks. But he does have the chance to fly the flag for the island by taking the Drop trophy back the shores of Lamma. Bigshot may have something to say about that. One more week to qualify I believe although I doubt I'll manage.

I feel somewhat left out now - maybe you and I should both go next week Philberto?
I'm sure our respective partners will be fine with that :-)
