Result - Date a bit foggy

1st & 2nd keep it real
1. Killawatt
2. The One True Gentleman
3. The Doctor
4. Funkin Donut
5. GingaRadge
6. The Baptist
7. Petawatt
8. Wee Rambo

Apologies: The Damage (destroyed), The Bonfire (deflamed), Bottleneck (demobbed).

Spotted rubbing himself against a new moped in the street just moments before the game, Wee Rambo's mind appeared to be elsewhere for this match. The Baptist took care of him early in an over/under full hoose showdown, but unfortunately missed the opportunity to enact his moniker.

With decades of top half finishes under his belt, Petawatt finally went on the attack early (as in, before he absolutely has to) and suffered fatally when his larger bro produced a K6 to sprinkle some tinkle all over the former's Q6.

The Baptist sashayed his way into 6th after coming up against a resurrected Dunderfunk who'd come back from the deid more than once. An incredulous crowd watched on as The Baptist turned a 10-2 which actually wasn't too bad against The Donut's Q3.

5th went to Championship pacesetter, the indigenous Scot and one time flanker, Mr Prince of Gingia. Going blind against Dunderfunk's QJ, he turned over an A5, but the cairds only brought a 5 after the Q's had paired and he was on the poker buroo.

The term 'Andylanche' was coined at this juncture to describe the destruction foisted upon PP$'rs by the resurgent Corstorphinite. With four players left and no ill luck to yet complain about, let me begin now.

On the one hand, the exit of Dunderfunk in 4th was good for your inward-looking scribe, but the path to his exit doubled up both my remaining opponents, the canny Killawatt and er, The Doctor. However those two fought each other as I cowered meekly in a corner. With The Doc all-in, his J9 couldnt overcome Killa's A5. Nowt came. Then there were two.

Then something extraordinary happened!!! I doubled up from behind!!!! Quite remarkable!!!!!

Twisny to last though. Those chortlesome Poker God's were soon up to their old ways tricking me all-in with 66. Smugawatt had no choice with a 10-10 and I'm surprised we even flopped the deck to confirm my latest  penniless demise.
