Rex reigned Saturday night and ravaged his competition at the Farewell Freeze-out. Actually, the final 5 worked out a chop that was agreed upon by all involved. Of course, another way to say it is that the other 4 surrendered to Rex and his dominating position. Rex was so far ahead that the other 4 gave him 40% of the prize pool and split the remaining 60% equally between them (that's right, Rex earned about the same amount as he would have if he won outright). Since Rex is leaving before I get back, this was his last tournament at my place--and there really isn't a better way to go out! Congrats Rex and good luck at future tables.
This will be the last tournament of the year, but I look forward to getting back and starting again next year!! Thanks to everyone for coming out and making this another successful tournament (and cash game--that again ended after the sun came out for the day).
