Yes, even the CPL Directors get to win every now and then...and CPL Wine Night was Mark "Verbal" Cardenas' week. Verbal bested the field of 13 and overpowered Bill "Comeback Kid" Lanoux in heads up play to take his first win in the CPL since July 9th 2008! This weeks win also guaranteed Verbal's seat in the coveted TOC in April. Greg "NewLife" Durand also clinched a seat in the upcoming TOC this week.
Congrats also goes out to Malinda "Nemesis" Cardenas for almost making it a Cardenas Sweep week, however as Comeback Kid would not go down when he was short stacked...Nemesis took the 3rd place spot.
The CPL point leaders returned with a vengence this week as Comeback Kid, NewLife, and Blind Me Down all made this points again this week. Side Note...Comeback Kid has a serious shot at breaking the all time CPL Point record this session, which is 128.8 held by "Karaoke" Phil.
CPL Honorable Mention goes to "Matusow" Matson for going out on the point bubble as he ran into one big hand after antoher to go out in 7th place.
CPL Honorable Mention also goes to Bud "Monster" Abbott for spending more time getting to Blaine than he did playing in Blaine!! A rough night indeed when your straight is no good, and your ace high flush gets you no chips...
Wine night was a blast like always! Thanks to everyone for making it a super night!
