2nd Sunday A Charm

On Super Bowl Sunday the Wafflecrush had only 5 players playing. Bakes and Thayer led the way and both went deep in many tournaments. Thayer started off the day very hot when he went deep in the Daily Fifteen Grand (3400 people!)and the 100r. Thayer ran bad deep and lost with around 40 people left in both.
Bakes had just an all around amazing day. Every tourney he played it seemed he went deep in. The two biggest were the Sunday Million and the 200r. Bakes played amazing in both of these but unfortunately couldn't get a win or a FT in either. Bakes lost a hand for the chip lead in the Million with 35 people left on a huge hand against the player who ultimately got 3rd. The hand had Bakes with 1.5 million and his opponent with about 3.5 Million. Bakes was in the BB and the Villain was in the SB. It was folded to the Villain who limped at 40k/80k and Bakes made it 290k. The SB tanked and ended up shoving for a huge amount. Bakes tanked and ultimately made a sick call with A5o. The SB flipped over J10o and Bakes was ahead. Unfortunately for Bakes his opponent got there and that was the end of his Million run.
Thayer ended the night as hot as he started. Thayer built a huge stack in the 7 oclock 100 FO on PS. Thayer ended up reaching the final table and with 3 people left he was very short. With 3 people left both of Thayer's opponents had over 600k in chips and Thayer had around 300k. Fortunately for Thayer he is a super ninja master and ended up running over the last 3 people and won handily for 17k! Good job Thayer! Good luck to Wafflecrushers in LA.
