James Mann continues New eras dominance

James "ace" Mann won his second event of the current season, beating top 5 donkey ben "cabbie" Elms at the ex-services club sunday event a. Even with all his donkey powers ben could not over come one of the regions bests players, and shows that class does prevail over ass.

Top 5 donkey's in orange

The blogs have been quiet for a while so ill spice things up a bit
Heres my top 5:

1)Jamie Byrnes - Been playing ever since it started and still thinks ace anything is good, i remember seeing him re-raise all in once with ace 5, turned out the original raiser had pocket aces but hey, it was suited.

2)Mark Storey- Much in the same mould as Jamie, finds it hard to fold any ace, at any situation, regaurdless of how many all ins there are before him if he sees an ace hes in

3)Shane Hovey - This guy is the shit stain on the underpants of poker..... Seriously, anyone who knows him knows i dont need to go any further with this

4)Benjamin Elems- "Cabbie" as hes known around around here, is possibly the worst player that i have ever seen, any 2 cards and hes in a pot, will hold on to low pockets even if the board shows all overs, maybe he just doesnt understand the basics of poker? I'm not sure.

5)Andrew Stephenson- Ill just paint a picture for u all about stuff this guy does each week. There is a raise a re- raise all in in front of him, this is remotley early in the game blinds are 200/400 so seeing this he puts all bar a few chips of his in the centre, the original raiser calls aswell. So when the cards turn over there is Pocket Jacks, Ace 10 and andrew turns over JACK 10. I wish this was a one off but he does it each week, there for earning his spot on the list.
