I apologise for the first update in over 2 months. The main reasons have been laziness, Barcelona, pub quizzes, games of chess, and my Aunties surprise 60th birthday celebrations. Only 5 weeks of the current season left and the status is much in the quo area from where I last left you. Coyote Mild still has a commanding lead, despite a superb run of form from the Shuffle, and is strong favourite to raise the coveted PDSF trophy come the end of June.
Last game (25/05/08)
An earlier start of 6.30pm, the Mistake was a late replacement for the Old Lady who had other matters to attend to. Jimmy White played despite a shoulder/elbow injury, sustained through a calamitous three way pile up on the stairs the previous drunken night. Mistake was first to fall. His unfortunate Aces coming up against Jimmys two pairs. Jarhead nearly fell soon after but hit a lucky full house on the river after Jimmy again had the upper hand. However his joy was short-lived as he was to fall a little later in 7th place anyway. Wicker Man followed his defeat in five-a-side with a disappointing 6th place. At this point Goose foolishly knocked wine all over the prestine cloth of the poker table. Everyone was in shock. But Jarhead rescued it with an expert display of tea towel rubbing. The sugar came out in no time. Advert was clearly ruffled by this and fell to Coyotes Ace-King combo soon after. God then had his way and made sure the cocky Shuffle ended his run of great form with a disappointing 4th position. Goose was next to leave the table in 3rd. Jimmy White heroically played through her injury pain to a creditable second thus giving Coyote his 7h win of the season. Surely no one can stop this boy now!!
