Congratulations to lj47, who wins the third AIPS III banana as champion of the No-Limit Hold'em event, which drew 143 entrants.

  • fesedu (Chris "willhopper" 41st place)
  • JDog1999 (Scott "OffDeadline" 71st place)
  • carbidex3 (Fasso "stpetebeach" 105th place)

Congrats li47 on the Banana win! Also, thanks very much to Chuck for putting together the Tourney Stats website at http://anteup.seitz333.com/, it's really awesome.

Will the tournament of champions be held after AIPS 3 concludes? =)

Good job LJ47. I went out very early. I am thinking that I might just suck at this poker thing. I am thinking of having a big UNO tournament, anyone dare to play me?
