Cyprus Poker Network League game 1 – Report

11 November 2009 5 Comments

bountyWell done to mrfcc1!
He won 1st place last night after an exciting battle in the first ever Cyprus Poker Network online league game.
39 players joined Kim and myself (appleinsider and CypusPete) for the inaugural CPN game and early on it was clear the standard of play was going to be very high.

Possible because of the $10 bounties on myself and Kim, the going was tough to say the least. A lack of decent cards and some bad bluffs meant I was out fairly early in 16th place.

Meanwhile, on one the other tables ‘appleinsider’ was fairing much better and for a while was chip leader. (Incidentally Kim was at the same time playing (and winning) in the Poker Show Live final table and playing for a $3000 sponsorship prize) he finished that in 4th.

However not even a poker player of Kim’s experience could win our tournament and he was knocked out in 5th (A10 v AK). As we progressed into the money the action was tense and after a closely fought battle between fifa59202 and mrfcc1, mrfcc1 was victorious finishing the tournament in style with a pair of Aces.

Well done to jorgemon and sebouch002, the two players share the bounty on my head, while 2nd place player fifa59202 took appleinside out of the tournament to win the other bounty.

Many thanks to the players who played and contributed to the friendly atmosphere, our next league game is in 2 weeks time.
Tuesday 24th November 2009 8:30pm GMT (10:30pm CY).

    Hi, it’s nice to see an active poker league – do you want a more useful scoreboard though?

    Check out PokerDIY.com if you have a mo – you can find home poker games or advertise for new players (all free) but mainly you can have your own poker league scoreboard (see my own <a title="Poker league scoreboard example" href="http://www.pokerdiy.com/poker-league/lid/241/rods-sydney-poker-league.aspx">home poker league).) with advanced player statistics (here is one of our best <a title="Poker league stats" href="http://www.pokerdiy.com/player-statistics/lsid/946/id/42109.aspx">player's stats).

    You can embed your scoreboard in this blog (or your Facebook profile!) too – here’s an example – <a title="Embedded poker league scoreboard example" href="http://pokerdiy.blogspot.com">http://pokerdiy.blogspot.com

    Check it out if you get a second, you may find it useful! Good luck with your league!
