*&$%# Rocco !
I figured since that is what a lot of people were saying last night during the Big O tourney on Pokerstars, I would make it the title of this here post. First off, thanks to everyone who made it out to play last night. We had another record turnout – 42 players !
My table had bdidde, Waffles, Wes, FatBaldGuy, ArtofSuckout, Brad and surflexus. I got to play ten whole hands. I had KK and ended up all in preflop with Art (AA), Brad (KTo), and surflexus (A3d). Amazingly, the Aces held up and Art knocked all three of us out.
Meanwhile, RoccoBoxer (aka Jim, Underfish,etc.) started chipping up and played a successful style of getting it in with the worst of it and getting Lucky, Lucky, Lucky ! 
Congrats to drewspop for making another great run and was probably a suckout away from making a run at going back to back. Be sure to take a look at an interview with him HERE. Jules played well again but got unlucky on the bubble. A few of the Big O regulars made it deep as well – Henry, Michael and Jim.  Dylan and presdlee both moneyed in their first foray into the weekly Big O game. It was also great to see a lot of bloggers playing in their first Big O/Mookie – including Vegas residents MiamiDon and CarmenSinCty.
When play got down to 3-handed, Rocco, bdidde and aimike made a 3-way chop. In the end *&$%# Rocco kept the Luckbox status and finished in 1st, followed by aimike and bdidde.
Congratulations to Rocco for the win, next week it will be the Big O – “*&$%# Rocco” Tournament.
You can read the live blog and see full results HERE. Tomorrow I will have an interview with our latest champion posted.

Mookie!!!!! You really know how to put on a great tourney! I swear to god I was actually a bit nervous when I sat down. Can’t wait til next week so we can do it all over again. MiamiDon and I will DEFINITELY meet up with you when you are in town (june 11 – 15th) – see, I even wrote down the dates.
Great tourny Mookie (despite the cursing and swearing I did after being bubbled).
Cheers!
perfect name for next week’s tourney.
Mookie, damn fun time as always. Next time I will have all of my issues (at least the technical ones) resolved by the time the cards are in the air. That way, when I lose I won’t have any other excuses! I’m not sure if I’ll make the next one. I might have a schedule conflict with the gf, but I’ll try. See ya round the room
Bring it…
Thanks again to everyone who came out to play…see you all next week.
