How often you got a full-house? How often you lost a hand with full-house? I lost this pot on the last card, as MightyStefan got his four of a kind! This nearly got me out prematurely.
Had to go All-in or accept defeat, but the gods of random were in my favor. Got a lucky full-house, again, and this time was good enough to win the hand. It didn't do much difference, as I got eliminated soon.
Finished 6th and watched fhantom play some mind-blowing poker. We won his first crown and automatically qualified for the December All-Star Game, gaining 10 points and jumping lots of places in the overall leaderboard.
MightyStefan finished runner-up, and the karma from that 4-of-a-kind bite back! Do you think you could do better? Join and play with us!
Congratulations Phantom for his first win, and to everyone that ended in the top five places. They all received important points, that will probably make a difference in the season's standings.
The 19 people in attendance provided a competitive game, and made me feel that this experiment gone a long way since it's start. We started with 4-5 players and the number is four times higher now.
UMAzing Poker #20 was played at an accelerate pace, and I was out after less than 20 minutes. Crackers done amazing, catching up on Rain and Candace, and becoming the player with the most crowns.
Infinity and MightyStefan played their usual quality game, and gained important points. It was a long season, and everyone worked hard for several weeks.
The All-Star Game (5th of December)
The All-Star Game will conclude the 2023 poker season, and the event is scheduled on the 5th of December at 7:45 PM UTC. The tournament has participation criteria, easy and flexible to make it accessible to the majority of the players. There are four tournaments
The All-Star Game prizes are:
1st place: 18 UMA
2nd place: 15 UMA
3rd place: 12 UMA
4th place: 9 UMA
5th place: 6 UMA
6th place: 3 UMA
Any player that won a tournament throughout the season will automatically receive the ticket for the All-Star Game! Therefore, we have 8 participants that received the golden ticket!
You will get your ticket for the final show-down if you had a minimum of 8 participations throughout the UMAzing Poker season. Less participations? Not an issue... if you accumulate at least 10 points. I wanted to reward commitment and punctuality, but still keep the entry level low.
The All-Star Game aims to bring the top players at the table, and kick-start the festive season with a jolly good game. November can add few more participants, along the 21 that already met the criteria.
Infinity is leading the pack, looking like the Alpha player. Pantera, Crackers and Obitoo are challenging the top spots, while TheRealTuna and MightyStefan could go higher with one win!
This season had 56 unique participants, with 34 joining at least twice! There are still 40 points in play for each, and everyone has a fair chance for prizes. Chase that spot for the All-Star Game, and see you Tuesday! Here's the link for UMAzing Poker #21!
