Morteza, the BOSS, feels confident
(as Mike Tyson said, "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face")

A thoughtful Gary's mood quickly changes when....

...he takes out first prize

with Aram in 2nd place

and Mohammad in 3rd place

and Andrew in 4th place

Tuesday November 5th 2024

 Our first Tuesday play went without a hitch with 23 players, including newcomer Tony Giannoulis.

Kee Yio Wan was declared Player of the Month for October and received free entry to tonight's play.

Mackenzie Little was the drawn Giantslayer, a challenge she accepted with relish. If she beats Ladder Leader Sean Ghodsi 389 of his ladder points will be transferred to her.

Raf was tonight's drawn jackpot but failed to capitalise.

Wednesday October 30th 2024

 Tonight we had 25 players. This is the last time we play on a Wednesday. From now on we will be playing on Tuesdays.

Jim Bean was the drawn jackpot but came up short.

Deputy sheriff Dilhun ran the night as Gary, in the guise of giantslayer, tried to slay Ladder Leader Sean. Sean demolished Gary 9-0.

It was good to see Aram Amirghan return after a prolonged absence.
