Drop Final

A very belated review of the tournament. With prizes including a trip to two for Phuket, accommodation in an unnamed Macau hotel and dinner for two at Wildfire included as prizes it is Hong Kong's premier free-roll. Two Lamma representatives stacked their starting chips on the felt and prepared to go to war.

Moocher doubled up early when he got involved in talking trash with his arch rival of previous weeks. He got his money in against him good for the third time in a row (recording his second win)-. This time calling an allin on a 932 rainbow flop with a mere QJo in a raised pot. His opponent showed 78o and he held up.

Bigshot busted out with two tables to go. He got his money in with a King flush only to see an ace flush decimate his chip stack. He got his money in once again with a premium hand only to see it bettered and he was soon in a taxi on his way to the ferry leaving Moocher behind on the last of two tables albeit with a short stack.

Down to 11 players Moocher decided he needed to have some chips at the final table to have a chance and he went allin with 62o, got called - was out on the final table bubble - and was ferry bound himself. The next round of games begins tomorrow at Drop and hopefully we will see an increased quotient of Lamma players on final day.

Have to try and get along sometime soon.
I heard that Macau casino the StarWorld Galaxy has installed an automatic / electronic poker table, first one in the country. So it is now possible to play in Macau. That said me and you would probably be the only people wanting to play and it would be almost like playing on line!

Will only be like online when they install a second one very close to the first and let me sit in my lucky boxer shorts and have some form of communication system that allows the wife to moan.

Let's go over 1 day next week then - don't tell the missuses? Mind you I have no idea what stakes they go at or anything like that
