SHOCKER!

Another even dozen available for play last night and the result was a shocker! Paul however didn't fare as well this week as he did last week and was eliminated first. A late arriving Ish had fewer chips to start with and was quick to follow Paul's lead. Giordan left next followed by an already celebrating my birthday Devin. Killian exited next followed by Justin B. I was next to leave the table and Markus, who did very well after being absent for so long was ousted soon after me. Bobby, who had a tremendous chip lead when we joined the feature table, had the cards turn on him horribly and he was defeated next. Chris who amazingly turned his less than $500 in chips quickly into thousands was finally whittled down. Deb made the top 2 this week but by the time it came down to her & Dustin her odds were astronomically slim for Dustin had played very aggressively and had about an 8 to 1 chip lead. These young players are watching all the poker shows and are emulating their counterparts in the pros. Congratulations Dustin on your first win at TNP. Here's the breakdown.
