New Zealand's 3rd Triple Crown - ship it to mathclub

Mathclub took time out this week from tilting the hell out of all of PD to actually play some poker, i could flame him some more, but I've promised to be nice.


16th Nov: $108 Ongame - $2970
16th Nov: $120 Party - $3850
19th Nov: $30r Ipoker - $5970

Couple of near misses before he closed it today, including getting it in with A9 vs A4 for it yesterday. And also a shout should go to him for his 2nd place in the Ongame 100k on the 16th for $15810, although second is for losers.

New Zealand's first real triple crown as well, as he keeps claiming us Brits living here don't count. Still, that's 3 triple crowns in one house within 2 months, not baaaad.

A couple weeks ago I found myself at Math's table in the AP's 75K, and HE WAS COOL WITH ME!!!!!!!!!! A highlight of my life obv. and a turning stone in his poker career, as you all can see. Good Karma got back at you brotha.

Congratulations.

cheers puggy, and thanks everyone else.

after having two 2nds in tourneys that would've given me the triple crown (including that brutal A9 < A4 heads up) was more relieved than anything else to finally get there today.

feels good to run like god for a while, can't wait to get pwned to shit and drop a few grand back next week when the poker gods finally catch up with me, lol.

one for the mid-stakes grinders imo.

Congratz, maybe the syndrome is not quite as strong as we all thought.

or maybe it is and being good at poker is a side effect

You're right, $ won there are worth less in the real world than those won on Stars/Tilt. Oh wait a minute....

Seriously though, those sites are softer than stars and tilt, but who gives a shit? We've heard americans moan a million times about not playing there, and yes that is unfair, and non Americans do have a much better chance of winning a triple crown, but "them's the rules."
