SHAD HEADS UP- POCCER'S CLINTON ORCHARD PRESENTING THE MEDAL- THE BOYS CELEBRATING! 'The Pot' travelled to Birmingham this weekend to play in the 'POCCER' event 2. With the usual pre-tourney complications, we were still trying to finalise our team at 9am saturday morning! The tournament consists of a 5-a-side football comp in the morning, with teams competing for points, which in turn, earn their starting chipstacks for the evening poker tournament. With 7 teams attending, we had managed to run away with the football before we needed to play our last league game. With our chief cheerleader DR Davey 2 chins (aka Srijit) supporting from the side, Carlos, Shad, Donno, RV, Freddie 'ill fight anyone' De'ath, Cookie and Spratty managed to ease 'THE POT' to the chip lead. After a quick power snooze (for cookie), and a couple of liquid refreshments, we headed for the Grosvenor Casino in Walsall to start the poker tournament. As ever, Carlos, Cookie, Spratty, Dr 2 chins, Donno and Shad took charge at their respective tables and put their chip lead to good use. With players dropping like flies, we managed to keep all our boys in good stead til we'd locked the team poker win down to just us and 1 other team. Bullen's bullets, headed by 'turncoat ginger judas' Martin James...formerly of THE POT, were our only opponents come the final table. As we got down to 6 players, and once Freddie had scared off most of the other opposition with his shirt, it became apparent that a deal was in the offering. So we ended up splitting the team prize of £1000 and playing it out to decide the individual winner. Shad soon took charge of the remaining players and after half hour had just about sorted it all out. He took the individual win, and Donno and he tied for the 'head hunter' award...knocking more players out of the comp than anyone else(for an extra £50). All in all, another great representation from the boys...looking forward to the next one! GOOGLE SEARCH 'POCCER' IF YOU WANNA SEE WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT FOR YOURSELF!
