We had two Bodog Pros in a field of 53 with no idea what was in store for them. The Pros never really stood a chance. Fifty-one (51) sOOted, any Ace / any paint, i'll take a super-sized sOOted connector Bodonkeys lined up to take their shot at the $100 bounties generously donated to this week's tournament prize pool by Bodog.
Mondogarage drew first blood knocking out Jean-Robert Bellande on a T-2-7 flop. Bellande held 7-8s and Mondo’s J-J was ok one time for $100 cash moneh.
Blinders was lucky enough to be sitting at Bellande’s left (can you ask for a better opportunity?) and got involved in some small pots with Bellande but, couldn’t pull the monkey push trigger with ATC to try and take him out.
David Williams was next to hit the rail when Vinnay’s mightee K-6o smoosh flattened David’s A-4o making Vinnay $100 happier.
This week’s Bodonkey tournament paid out a whopping 14 spots with the top nine getting cash and 10-14 getting a T$11 rebate. The top five finishers also received the standard T$109 because that’s how we do it over at the Bodonkey.
For the second week in a row I made the final table but, couldn’t finish in the top 5. I took a big hit at the final table when I woke up with 4-4 in the BB and Emptyman jammed his hammer into me. Everyone folded around, I insta-called and shipped half my stack over when a 7 hit the flop. Later my luck runs even better when I open push with A-2o from UTG and the table turbo folds around to Donkette who insta-calls from the BB with Q-Q . She still had to sweat a 4-flush draw and Ace after the turn so at least that was worth some added comedy. I finished 8th for $23 and a handful of TOC Leaderboard points.
Tina sat down tonight and did very well putting the hurt to everyone’s favorite sOOted donkey doubling up early. She also knocked out NewinNov who’s been crushing the Bodog Blogger series. Tina finished 14th for T$11.
Donkette took down this week’s Bodonkey finishing 1st for $159 cash +$109. Vinnay finished 2nd for $106 cash + T$109 (+$100 for D. Williams bounty) and BuddyDank picked up AA/KK enough times to take 3rd for $63 cash + T$109.
Thanks to everyone who registered to play this week and BIG thanks to Bellande and David for taking time out of their busy schedules to donk it up with us.

Didn't get to many opportunities. I did jam J8o after Jean completed has SB into my BB. He wisely folded.
Nice job with another bodonk final table. Not sure how "unlucky" you were though when as you describe it you "instacalled" a jam early at the final table with your 44. That is about as bad of a poker play as could be made under the circumstances, so I gotta chalk that one up to a very poor decision on your part and not to luck based on the results.
Don't be the guy instacalling at the final table of all places with tiny pockets. He could be jamming 85o on you and you're only 51%. Gross.
hoy,
Emptyman was the shortest stack at the table in that hand. i was a below avg stack and figured it to be a coin flip at worst. if you can't read a monkey shove for what it is, stick to limit games.
