24 players ventured to the Jockey Club in Raynham to ring in the new year and new month! Keith Wooley was clearly the big stack when the final table began, even after doubling up multiple opponents during his top 16 run. However his luck ran dry deep as his top pair was out kicked on several occassions and his top set of queens was four card flushed on the river. Even after all these beats Keith managed a 5th place finish.
Micheal Houghton worked his short stack as best he could but couldnt manage to play past 4th place. His good friend and FT opponent, Mike Cornell, played a fine game tonight but ran into some big hands short handed to see his stack dwindle before busting in 3rd. This left Dave Grenon HU v. Mark Esters.
Grenon, fresh off his 18th place finish in the 164 player RI new years day event, was down to 3k early before mounting his comeback which included pocket aces and quad 5s at the FT alone! Esters bounced back-to-back $36K Championship winner (seasons 18+19) Shane Matthews early on and never looked back. Esters was running good and had so many chips that Grenon chose to chop for 2nd rather than duke it out with Esters who happily collected his first win of the season, complimented by tonights bounty points! This was a fast paced event and the action is expected to be even heavier early this month as players vie for January POTM points while tuning up for Jan 11 and 18 $5K POTM events!
Directors note: This was a well below average field for the jockey which has been hitting forty in recent weeks. I expect this number to be much higher next Wednesday night so get on down to Jockey Club in Raynham and help us pay out even more in prizes!
This event is part of the Southern Massachusetts Tour
