FERN WINS RECORD POT AND APRIL MULTI RE-BUY EVENT

Post date: Apr 13, 2019 3:7:37 PM

It was not only a tale of 2 events, but a tale of 2 tables, we had the Wild West led by Scott Boles and his unprecedented 6 rebuys and the “pussy table” which had a grand total of 8 rebuys in total.

Only 4 events deep into 2019 we have 2 interesting story lines we are following – First off, is Jay Fern, “back”??  Fern was one of the most dominate Brooktown players from 2005-2010 having won 13 times in his first 6 years, then came the lean years of 2011-2018 he only had 1 win, but in 2019,  2 wins in 4 events and takes home the largest regular season prize ($808) in Brooktown history – Jay has already taken home more money in 2019 ($1,463) than our 2005 Champion (and 3 time event winner), Rich Southard took home for the entire year in 2005 ($1,232).

Our other interesting story is April runner up Jason Stuart, who was not even committed to the league when 2019 started and all he has done is cash in his first 3 Brooktown events and is currently sitting in the top 6 looking for an invite to the 2019 Brooktown final table. Stuart becomes the first BROOKTOWN player to ever cash in their first 3 events and he took home $606 for his efforts.

I want to give a HUGE thank you to our final four for playing quickly and aggressively to help get us all out and home. Uncle Bob and Rich Mangine closed out the final 4 and both picked up their 2nd cashes of 2019.

Thank you Mikey T for hosting and being very Lent and very Heathen friendly with both tasty meat and non-meat options.

High Hand was won by Pete Costello and there was no 4 of a kind so that pot will carry forward.
