Someone, for the love of God... smash the damn buddha!



Kevin 'The Horror' Hodkinson has, incredibly, won his fourth tournament in a row!

A regular feature now, is his 'lucky' little buddha, if you see him rubbing its tummy when you are in a hand with him... be worried.

Last night he was down to about 1300 chips and was all but dead but he managed to double-up, then again, then again... and it just didn't stop!

I was determined to take him out when my Ace, 9 hit a flop of 5, 5, 9. I checked, hoping he would bluff his remaining chips but he checked too. I checked the turn and he shoved and I snapped him off. Of course he flopped Quads, with pocket 5s!

I don't think anyone has won 4 back to back tournaments over here, at the Pomme or elsewhere.

Heads-up, Kev's opponent was seasoned Pro, Soxy, and even he couldn't cope with the buddha!

Full league updates in a few days...
