In a week that was full of tension and riddled with amazing river catches...Week 12 of the 2008 Summer Session will go down as one of the best final weeks before the TOC. This was largely due to the miricle run that Vince " Cursed One" was undertaking....he needed to not only do well during Week 12 to make the TOC...but he needed to win....and then get some help on top of it.
And help he got...Nanoman went out first and put his TOC chair in the hands of others. But it all turned futile as Vince found himself after the second break with an even chip stack against two others and just couldn't get the breakaway hand to really guarentee him a heads up finish. Vince finished 4th.
The night belonged to Blind Me Down and Nemesis as they ended up heads up with a stack of chips that was almost even...however after only a couple of hands Nemesis found herself all in! She survived and doubled up. Then she doubled up again....and suddenly Nemesis was in the chip lead heads up against Mike!
And then the back and forth began....and it kept going back and forth...blind for blind....between Blind Me Down and Nemesis all the way through to the 500-1000 blind level until Blind Me Down sealed the night with A-8 off suit over Nemesis' K-3 suited for the win during Week 12!
Congrats to Blind Me Down!
