After the long drought of the diploma exam time was it again: A new edition of my kitchen poker tournament Nagus' All In! (short NAI) was on - this time in May instead of April as in previous years. Meanwhile, even the eleventh regular edition and this time under the title fatalistic End Game because it is the last NAI to which we all know students are (or most of us). But I have not to drown in front of the NAI and there will certainly be other issues. A certain player said yesterday, however, often and clearly that this is unfortunately the last NAI - he wants to take time in the future no longer play ;)
occurred any event, again at ten brave gamblers and long-time blog readers will see some familiar faces in the field of participants:
As already indicated last night: I did it according zwö ; lf issues of NAI-hosted tournaments to win finally done it. After three fourth, two third, four second places and statements from other players and it was finally time. Maybe it was because I first heads-up against a former champ (my sister) took instead of the other four times to serve as bosses for Neuchampions to have. Maybe because I had a goal this time to finish second instead of the current gain. Or the full CD Boss Themes of different games I've burned for extra's heads-up - is no more epic feel than to his first title win;)
This has also the last of the main cast times and won a tournament. In the Riesinger's leaderboard to Olympia rating I am so climbed from 10th to 3rd place in the other rankings (Formula 1, relative and absolute distance square \u0026lt;- To the left there's when updated versions), I was already the first and was my develop leadership.

In conclusion, I can only say it was a very exciting tournament. From a brief weak phase in mid-game (which has now become a tradition;) apart), was aggressive and played poker hands and there was great showdowns. Furthermore, the curse of the 10 - the card handed out yesterday, the most bad beats.
to a victory, I did not last long. I lost the first hand and then got three hours felt no playable hand. My nickname Hydra I'm not free;)
Flo also had a big run, but had gone to urgent short after 22 clock, why then, from this point my newly retired brother just for him and so still high fought to third place. Defender Daniel had little luck and flew out the final humiliation for the upper hand 4-3.
Overall, we were sitting about six hours a poker table before to 2 clock in the morning the final hand was played.
As usual, there's a few photos of the most spectacular hands (and a few general impressions), because it's this time, however, are only a few more behind the cut (this info for all the bold obtrusive journal use again to see some of the old records: Some the images are not currently displayed, because the responsible image server is down).
left to say that I again had lots of fun. I hope my guests like it went (have my nachos tasted them anyway, nothing is left over). Until next NAI!
NTL
As promised, here again the most exciting hands and eliminations (or rather a selection, we have photographed yesterday really much):
Michi had the first ace Pocket Pair at the table - Slow Play Thank - drove it right against the wall of Andy's two pair with Q10.
A few hands later, Michael was then also the first player was eliminated, with one hand with which one also goes bankrupt easy: He had a 9-Drilling, his opponent and also, unfortunately, the better kicker.
Here began the curse of the 10th Flo was driven away from the hustle of having to All In (and then call the first time - without waiting for the reaction of his opponent). Iliad was called with AJ forward before him on the 10 River stunted. And Flo had twice as many chips as before his phone call.
the same hand, and subsequent "Pirates of the 10 - Part 2". Iliad had JJ and I the 10 couples, it all in, I met the Booya! -10 (True story) on the river and my brother had left on 9th place. Since Flo had really gone now but now, he Iliad in its place the end of tournament play.
Here I was the first time All In. My boys pair on the turn was even said before Riesis 10-pair and my sister (donor in the hand) or "Now again a 10 on the River. " I then briefly very cold, but spared the curse of me and I could Doubling. The tournament went on for me.
The next elimination. Care bye to 8th place, because I did not think I've met the lady, turn and river did not saved. Even my second elimination - of a victory I was still not here.
The end of our Defender Daniels. He went all in preflop and in a fit of my female intuition suited Sis called with 4-3. So they had a flush on the turn and open ended straight draw, gabs on the River Road and Flo Riesi and thus remained on the only two-time champions - for now! ;)
6th place went to Christopher, who was in that hand on the flop still ahead, but with the possibility of a royal flush (it was missing was the king of spades), I could not call differently. Although there was only the king of diamonds, but also submitted to the victory and third in my elimination. Slowly it again looked good for me and I had my walls from poker chips begin to build (see below).
The Suck-out the day. Andy met his A2 road on the flop, Riesi believed in the heart of the cards and went with JJ All In. The turn was the third boy, the river was the second fifth Runner-runner full house and Riesi was thus even more in the race (in the picture you can see the way his greedy paws ^ ^)
And once again survived Riesi its elimination. Here he unbuttoned after a preflop all in again Flo (pronounced Hias * g *) from some of its chips. Classic coin flip situation that we had yesterday did not times as often.
has now's our first two-time Champion then but still got caught. As he ran into my pair and busted in 4th place out (That's how it's done @ Michi). My fifth elimination (after I had been banished to Andy 5th). The heads-up was approaching and I was chip leader. Situation known so far. What was new: the last three remaining players I had, my brother and my sister. Familen duel to the final!
Sis with their Lucky Charms Pogopuschel Squee, my brother (officially, of course, as Flo on the table, like the name tag makes it clear - at the time He was the running joke was no longer soooo funny ^ ^ ') and I with my Hawaiian shirt and my fortress wall of happiness +3 (+5 against humanities).
Flo / Iliad took leave after a few hands with a somewhat unspectacular hand out of the tournament (which is why I post now not need a photo of it) and thus the final was as "brother vs. sister" set.
The chip stack at the start of heads-up looked different than they were, it was about 12,000 to 8,000 for me. At this time, I congratulated their second Steph Tracks laid, but defiantly one of the boss music and decided I do not think second place to earn a fight;)
After about half an hour grueling heads-up (and two very industrious ; term donors / mixers - thanks to concern and Christoph) I managed to finally held to be impossible: With the 10-4 dream hand, I met the two pair on the flop, my Sis her As -> Beth -> ; Raise -> All In -> Call -> Triumph Cartman video from yesterday ^ _ ^
So it is me after two and a half years NAI History I finally managed to be classified in the series of champions. And congratulations to my Sis, a worthy opponent was (and is nice as happy for me ^ ^). And thanks to everyone for a wonderful tournament.
Well, so looked out my kitchen after all the guests had dispersed. This ends the image report. Respect to all those who have kept up through here;)
