HOUR 1:

CRAIG VS LAPPIN

There has to be a stewards enquiry as to the amount paid in rake but a close guess is a $40 win for LAPPIN in NL Hold 'Em and a $30 win in HORSE for a total of approximately $70.

HOUR 2:

CRAIG VS ROUNDER63

Again, stats are not exact but Rounder won a little over $100 in NLHE and $40-$50 in HORSE.

lol, pretty standard 3 bet call with the ol' 78o. This was literally about 2 minutes before the end of the challenge when bbp was winning by like $200 or something. gg tho, the charity wins no matter what

[LAPPIN]

I am going to reserve comment on the hand in question for my much sought-after blog entry tomorrow. What I will do however is pay tribute to what a top-man Dr Fill is. Seriously, this guy is a credit to himself and anyone who knows him.

In the final analysis, Dr Fill whooped Michael to the tune of almost $40 in the HORSE, completing a clean sweep of him in that format! Unfortunately, he lost about $335 in the NL Hold 'Em.

To be fair to Fill, he was unlucky in a big all-in hand worth $400 where both he and Mike had sick draws and 50% equity each. He was a little too aggro with a 'Dublin Bellybuster', overplaying Q8 on a AJ10 board to lose another $200. He then played awesomely to beat his way back into the mix, grinding back about $150 before the lunacy that was the AA hand.

GG all and when all is said and done, charity wins and a great cause it is too!

That's an interesting hand. I like his preflop call since you are 250 deep. It might be a little scetchy if you have been 3bet bluffing a good amount being aggressive postflop. I also really like Fill Goods 3bet size since you are really making him pay to see a flop in position against you. The turn check raise is interesting. I prefer a bet-fold or a check-call much more than a check raise planning on maybe trying to get some very thin value on a blank river.

How much money was raised for the charity?

[Dr Fill Good]

I saw an opportunity to go for the clean sweep. As I was chatting with rounder63 and LAPPIN, one shouting fold the other shouting ship. That play was akin to 5 putting the final hole of the master with a 4 shot lead. To missing an empty netter shot with 5 seconds left in a tie game in hockey. To missing 3 free throws with no time left on the clock in basketball.

It depends on how much Michael ends up donating. From our side we ended up giving 500+ dollars.
