12/11/2010

3 Comments

 
The final meeting of the BRC on 4th December 2010 saw the Double Points championship round at Dam It's!!! Deep WAter Inlet at Narwee. Thanks to Dam It!! and Mrs Dam It!! for great hospitality and venue. As always it was a great night and of course there were some highlights:

1. Pre Game Dinner was at Big John's Pizza at Kingsgrove. Dinner was attended by Dam It!!, GT, Jagger, Developer, Punter, The Rok and BigBluff. Big meals were the order with Punter cleaning up the huge spagetti marinara, leaving no scraps!

2. All finished in time to be at Dam Its!! by thge scheduled start. Sniper, Banker, GT and of course Maverick via MSN Messenger was there on the lap top.

3. The games were the usual assortment, with BB coming up with the mind numbing "open book" Texas with strip cards allowing personal wild cards and choice of any table cards with cards in hand for best poker hand!! Too complex for some members!!

4. The Professor's" Fat Snake" Texas made a couple of appearances

5. Controversery was created when it was noted around 10.30pm that some members had incorrectly doubled the ante for their turns before the  Constitution ruled post 11pm break. While both Jagger and BB played correctly and put in the correct antees this met with disapproval and snide comments from The Rok and Developer when it was noticed that they had been playing incorrect blinds. Calls of "Ante-Gate" were quickly ignored by Jagger and BB and the game proceeded with mumblings being heard.

6. BB had built up a stash early but was not able to sustain the early wins as the night wore on.

7. Some close games and larger pots occured after the 11pm coffee break. Coffee and cakes were a welcome treat

8. Tension was building as the pre agreed final game at 1.30am approached.

9. Professor has given up around 12pm followed by Sniper who called it an early night as he had to go singing in the morning

10. Banker decided it was too much for him and decided to leave early as well but was in fact $32 ahead. This created some difficulty in assessing positions however it was agreed that Banker would be relegated to the top of the bunch that had left, not withstanding his top earning for the evening.

11. The Developer was coming back strongly at the end managing to get 5 Kings over BB's 5 Queens. Developer clawed back around $40,000 in chips in the last few hands.

12. Game was promptly shut down at approx 1.32am with anxious counting then beginning.

13. Not counting the Banker's early exit pot, The Jagger came in first place for BRC XXXVIII, followed by Dam It!! then Maverick and  in 4th placed BigBluff. All others lost with the Professor coming in LAST PLace

14. Counting saw BB finishing $100 in chips( 10c in real money) ahead of Developer thus inching him into 4th place giving BB 14 points for the night and enought to provide a final 2 point lead for the 2010 Season. What a Champion!!

15. BB was thus declared 2010 BRC Champion

16. Photos were taken with those still left at the game, including Maverick on the Laptop. Some mumblings from the gallery were heard on 'ante-gate" but were ignored.

17. Meeting ended at 1.50am

Thank you to John & Kathy for hosting another rousing BRC event.
Also .... Congratulations to BB & Jagger for coming 1st & 2nd in this years championship.
In the words of - "Survivor" they "Outwitted, Outplayed & Outlasted " all comers to ascend the dias of greatness.
Well Played.

It was good to have Maverick on board again from Vancouver, even though he skinned me on a large pot when I held 5 Queens .. only to be gazzumped by his 5 Kings.
Beware Maverick: The old Klingon proverb that "revenge is a dish best served cold." I shall not forget.

Looks like the Punter may be moving to Canberra next year .
Excellent ...... ROAD TRIP .

Thanks to BB for another excellent summary & I look forward to our next gathering.

Have a happy & safe Christmas all , Best wishes to you all & your familes.

Members,

Given we are up to meeting XXXIX, I would like to propose the following for the members to consider

I would like to propose that BRC XXXIX introduces an “All- In “ option at the very end of the betting rounds, as a change from the purely structured betting we have been playing.

I can hear you all saying, here he goes with the “All In” however I do recognise we do need to keep it friendly and within the bounds that we currently play as far as betting and money wagered.

I propose that we play the structured betting as we do now up to the last card being turned. On the turning of the last card the final betting for the game in play is proposed be a “ no limit” up to an “All In”. This certainly will make the game very interesting and get the pulses racing!!

So that the game overall does not get carried away, we can agree that a maximum of $40 be changed on the night by any member after which the member can not change money for 1 hour, after which a maximum of another $10 is allowed if requested.


Any support for the proposal? At least to try once!!


BB
