The Chef Takes The Lead From Jason...

I've been away for the last few weeks with a couple of well earned holidays that needed taking, it seemed ages since I'd last played Poker so I was keen to get back in to it.  I had only played once while I was away which was a tournament very similar to our Monthly Deepstack £100+£10 freezeout 20k in chips, the only difference was this was a two day event and had 90 runners!  I still believe there is the capacity and the players to get a tournament of this scale in Jersey, I definitely would like to think we could get a tournament similar to this with at least 50 runners one day....
Anyway on to the Friday Freezeout - Jason Fraiser has been cleaning up while I've been away with two 1st place finishes and a 3rd meaning he had jumped straight to the top of the league.  Third placed Alan was keen to take advantage of Jason missing this week, and he did just that.  I managed to make the final table however almost double Alan up and set him up for his win when I called his All-In with AQ suited, Alan was sat with Big Slick and with the first card out a King I knew I was gone.
Alan managed to dominate the final table and ended heads-up against 'The Rock' AKA Jeremy Beadle with the Chef finally taking it down and taking the Tournament Lead by only 1 point from Jason.  There are still plenty of weeks to go and anyone could win but it looks it like being an interesting battle for Season 2.
