Year 2014 Information

Sharp December 28, 2013
Alright guys. I have a Year 2014 schedule for ya. The Year 2014 Season will have some changes to it. To start the season will contain 12 total games. That includes 11 season games and 1 championship game. The blind/break schedule has also been slightly adjusted in hopes of knocking a little time of the total time of the games. We'll see in action if it makes a difference or not. Also, I'm going to revert how the championship game works back to how it was originally intended to be. The championship game will be a no buy in, winner takes all event. The whole purpose of the championship game in the first place was to have a night of free fun to decide the season champion. Other then that, no critical rule changes that I can think of off the top of my head. First game will be on January 18th, 2014. Hope to see you all there. Until then, have a safe and happy new years! -Year 2014 Schedule- (Some dates and times may be subject to change) (All start times are 8pm unless noted otherwise) Jan. 18th (Sharp's B-Day Game) Feb. 22nd Mar. 15th Apr. 26th (Jenni & Momma Sharp's B-Day Game) May 17th Jun. 7th Jul. 26th Aug. 23rd (10th Annual Adam Game) (6pm Start Time) Sep. 20th Oct. 18th Nov. 15 Dec. 13th (Championship Game)

Year 2013 wrapping up. Only two games left!

Sharp October 20, 2013
Year 2013 is starting to come to a close. With only 2 games left the top 9 for the championship game is almost complete. Spots 1-7 are already locked up. Andy C. is sitting in 8th right now. He has a strangle hold on at least a top 9 spot, though mathematically he could still be knocked out. It was take an act of God though. Still very much up for grabs is that final spot. Colin D. and Josh C. are currently neck and neck with two games left. It would be the first championship game appearance for either player! Josh C. currently holds a small lead at that spot. Jason G. could sneak up in there for an upset with a little luck. As for the other spots, 1-7 are just fighting up more chips to start in the championship game. The up to date current chip listings for the championship game are located at (link no longer active). Hats off to Flox for locking up a spot in his first championship game! Just because you may not have a shot at making the championship game doesn't mean you can't play in the final two games. You can still play to have a good time and try to take down the individual game pots. You can also try to make things more difficult for those fighting for that final ninth spot! :) Hope to see you all at the final games!

Remember only the top 9 make it to the championship game! Hope to see you all in a couple of weeks!
