Day 3 completed

And It's All Over

Zac was only sitting on 75,000 so the chips were always going to go in on this hand and they duely did pre flop.

Fellows holding.. {3-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}

Shutlz holding.. {10-Hearts} {3-Hearts}

Fellows in good shape as we head to the flop...

{Q-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {7-Hearts} It just got more interesting as the turn comes...

{6-Diamonds} One more card to potentially end it...

{J-Hearts} !! The flush comes to give Jimmy Shultze the winning hand and every chip left in the tournament. He becomes our 12th braclet winner this year winning a cool $257,105.

Congratulations also go to our runner up, Zac Fellows, who fought to the end and takes home $165,165 for his efforts.

To be honest it was never in doubt because Shultz had his lucky penny under his chair. He found it under his chair on day one and has kept it under his chair throughout as he thought it was bringing him luck. He wasn't too far wrong! Shultz had announced that he will be donating 25% of his winnings to Charlsetown Fire Department so a big pat on the back to him for that genorous gesture.

Winning photos coming shortly.

Devistating Blow

Jimmy Shultz has made a huge move.

The flop came {2-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} and Fellows lead out. Shultz raised and Fellows called.

The turn was the {Q-Clubs} and after Shultz bet he was raised by Fellows bringing the pot to 700,000. After Shultz called the raised the river was the {Q-Spades}. Fellows lead out and Shultz raised, causing Fellows to halt. After some thought Fellows made the call and Shultz slammed down {Q-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} for trips and took the huge pot. After this pot Fellows was left with 75,000 in chips.

Fellows Under Pressure Again

Zac Fellows is down to around 600,000 after losing a couple of moderate pots. The second hand had a board reading...

{10-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {7-Hearts}

Jimmy Shultz was holding {J-Clubs} {6-Clubs} and took the pot on the river after turning a flush for the best hand. Fellows mucked his hand after seeing what Shultz had.

The Lead Swings Back to Shultz

Zach Fellows raises from the button and Jimmy Schultz call before we see a flop...

{9-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}

Shultz check raises Fellows who calls before the turn...

{7-Diamonds} Shultz leads out this time and Fellows calls so to the river we go...

{Q-Clubs} Shultz bets again and Fellows calls with {9-Spades} {5-Spades} but he's been rivered by Shultz's {Q-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {8-Hearts}

600,000 is Being Traded

It appears that about 600,000 is going back and forth between our two finalists. Shultz just won a pot worth 600,000 with a pair of deuces, bringing the players to about even chip stacks.

Fellows Takes the Lead... Again

Zac Fellows took the lead again after winning back to back big pots. in the first hand Fellows flopped two pair when the board came {2-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {8-Diamonds}. Fellows was holding {2-Spades} {8-Clubs}. Shultz flopped had {J-?} {8-?}, so the pot quickly rose to 800,000.

On the second pot, Fellows hit a queen on the river to take down another 600,000.

Fellows has 1,700,000.

Slow Start Quick Finish

Jimmy Shultz is on the button and we have a limped pot as we go to the flop...

{8-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds}

Fellows leads out for 50,000 before Shultz raises to 100,000. Fellows calls so the turn comes...

{9-Spades} Shultz check raises Fellows this time. He calls so the river brings a ...

{6-Spades} Fellows bets 100,000 and Shultz calls holding {J-?} {8-?} but it's no good a Fellows rivered a straight with {10-?} {6-?}

Not So Fast

Shultz was able to stop the rush when his {A-Diamonds} paired up on the flop. He was able to get a bet on every street and take Fellows back down to 700,000 in Chips.

Fellows On the Comeback Trail

Fellows, with less that 500,000 in chips needed to make something happen and in back to back hands he did just that.

On the first hand Fellows held {A-Spades} {K-Spades} and bet every street on his way to making a flush on the river. The board was {5-Spades} {A-Clubs} {6-Spades} {5-Clubs} {10-Spades}.

The second hand Fellows hit a 4 on the river to be steal another pot from Shultz.

At this point Fellows is back to 1,100,000
