21. 10, 4, 5, ------------------ 8 " - 17 - WON

Brian having to bet in front of Helen bet $300 then Helen only bet $400. Howie (BR3) had a total of $750 and keep back $25, once all three won Brian took down 1st place, Howie 2nd, and Helen 3rd.

Some of the Great comments by the annoucers were:

1. "Brian and Helen are basicly tied, Brian is only up by about $600 over Helen! (they only started with $1,000 in chip)."
2. When talking about a player late in the game and needing to make a move he received 4, 4, vs dealers 3 and the comment was "What is he suppose to do with that, split it?"
3. "What he needs is a 17 card!"
4. On the last hand, Brian has a 14 vs. dealers 8, their comment was "Brian should DD for less, his hand doesn't matter, he just needs Helen to lose!"

So Rick I guess that means my copy of the show is in the mail since I couldn't be there for it and I can't get the TV stations its playing on here. I'll be watching my mail box :laugh:

Funny how the memory plays tricks on you in such a situation as a final table like that.
I thought I stole the lead with that insane string of BJ's and never let it go. Guess I was wrong, eh? :laugh:

Leftnut I was there and thought the same thing, but either we were both wrong or the announcers and stats shown were wrong.

From all the e-mails and PM's I've received today from other players watching your final table, they seem to think both of us are correct as well.

I had forgot I wrote down the totals at the count and went back to check them and you were ahead at the count, yet that is not what they show on the stats from last night.

I love the fact Winstar is hosting and airing this tournament on TV, but I think they need some help with the production.
