It finally happened.
Ben Anderson scooped the jackpot of $180 and, of course, top prize money for the night. He was beside himself with joy; a happy chappie indeed. Well done, Ben.
Sean Ghodsi's unbelievable run of 15 consecutive match wins was brought to a sudden stop as Sean succumbed to Jim Bean in the 1st round.
Tournament Director Gary announced that as of next week there will be an optional Side Pool of $10 which will be split 70%-30% between the top two participating players.
Tonight's place-getters were:
1st Ben Anderson
2nd Dilhun Akpinar
3rd Adam Makda
4th Mackenzie Little and Aslin Sagnaklar (tied).
