trny 4 summary: this one can be summed up in three words: DLOWILLY, DLOWILLY, DLOWILLY......

Confeds stud Dlow shows Cup MVP prowess by simply refusing to lose this trny. Finding himself shortstacked after calling Katstale's JJ shove with 66's, Dlo fights back to take it down in epic fashion. The Kat didn't go easy, and the two flipped stacks a time or two before Dlo finally prevailed, in one of the better HU finales in this year's Cup....

Congrats to DLO, who firmly established himself as a Cup MVP candidate with his second win this series....

Like Greg Jennings in Madden, DLOW is literally putting the team on his back and keeping Confeds on the map this World Cup. The man has scored HALF of Team Confeds' points so far..... Kudos on another job well done!

Kat's impressive play netted Team World a second, and that point is good enough to tie Team USA for the lead in the race for the Cup.....

It's starting to get good now, with a lot of very good poker being played.....

trny 5 summary: Canada's jayvegas and usa's fried cheese battled it out heads up for a pretty good while, trading the chip lead back and forth for a while with neither being able to make much headway, until finally, at about the one hour mark, jayvegas' 88 held up vs. fc's aj, and then jays a9 flopped an ace to beat fc's k9, ending the trny....

Congrats to Jayvegas for the win, his second of the series, putting him in contention for mvp as well....

Canada inches closer to the lead, which Team USA reclaimed sole possession of with it's one second place point....

Thanks again for the updates Donk! Am at work right now without access to the poker software so can only really follow from afar - your updates are doing a great job of keeping me informed though, and am trying to cheer on my teammates in spirit still even if I can't be at the tables to support them on the rail!

trny 6 summary: usa's Empire Maker goes 2 for 2 in takin' down his Cup trnies, poppin' the field, and confeds' pokerpro takes second.... EM's strong performance gives USA some breathing room on the lead for the moment, and certainly puts his name in the Cup MVP hat, as well.....

Kudos, EmpireMaker, with the very timely and needed win to get things back on track for the Home Team!

EMPIRE!!!

[CarolinaDaze]

Damn what's going on with the "Confeds", bet you MFers wish you had me now.

[Auto Donk]

they even sent no1here a messge to see if he was available.....

they passed on the waves waiver line.....

still not that desperate.....

[mpaschal34]

I finally thought I was going to lose the _conf on my ID with a new World Cup happening. However they didn’t use the designators this year. Looks like it’s stuck their forever.

trny 7 summary: usa's hhsilver gets his aces cracked early by pabonaparte to hit the rail, mayberry then falls to the wayside, and two of the most aggressive players on SBR squared off heads up, canada's sinmeido and world's pabonaparte.... sin first evened up the stacks with some skilled play and aggressive moves, then the two traded blows for a while, ultimately getting it all in with pabonaparte winding up with the better of it for the win.....

Team World closes the gap between first and second to one point heading into the evening trnies....

Hat's off to pabonaparte on the win, as sinmeido is one of the toughest players to take out on the site....

trny 8 summary: leovegas strong as shit, takes it down.... rivers two pair with 23 to end it.....

been that kind of day for Team World.... Leo with two impressive wins.... another mvp candidate, mvp probably won't be decided til late on the final day given all the players in contention...... b1slickguy picks up a much needed second for the confeds.....

with the win, as they say in Nascar, "NEW LEADER".....

Team World strong today....

they passed on the waves waiver line.

In fairness, I haven't cleared waivers. I'm not a free agent yet.

Very close after two days, anything can still happen - nice run by the Confeds today, showing how much things can change for any team from one day to the next. Enjoying the show, should be an exciting finish if it continues this way the next two days!

[Optional]

too bad about opti going out 3rd tonight on that bad beat

Just wanted to keep it closer. And make sure Confeds scored over the 10 points I predicted for the day

Not really a bad beat. Was happy to get it all in with AQ suited in that spot. Chucky would not have had AA many times.

Whole tourney could not draw a winner and my attmepts at positional play got me caught out a couple of times.

Will make up for it at Noon tomorrow. Think I have Rumble Part II v Sin lined up!

[USCPHILLYGUY]

Way to go Confeds! My ticket still in the running v the Canucks

didnt look but did their 12th show up
