We&#8217;re half way through the season and although there is still plenty of time to rack up points and win a seat in Vegas, we are now starting to see some of the top contenders making moves to solidify their seats. We had a turn-out of 24 players for this event, a few folks showing up a little late due to very bad traffic. Piranha\u00a0founder Ed Sandoval joined us once again to play!<\/p>\n<p>Final table started just before 5PM, consisting of: Amo, Ed, Adrian, Enrique, Brad, Bill, Haisam, Sheng, and Elaine (clearly trying to avoid the picture!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0294.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2130\" src=\"http:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0294-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0294.jpg 768w, https:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0294-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Final table bust-outs came in pretty steadily for the next two hours.

Another 7 hit on the flop, sending Ed home in 7th place. First points-scorer of the night was Amo. I missed the hand, but at this point, Brad had a pretty commanding chip lead. Out in 5th place was Elaine with KQ, after Brad improved his A9 with an A on the flop. Brad kept the pressure on and continued stacking his opponents, busting Sheng&#8217;s open ender when his 45 (suited) ended up filling up.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0301.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2133\" src=\"http:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0301-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0301.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0301-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/piranhapokerteam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_0301-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In a big hand towards the end of the session, all three of the remaining players had a significant stake in the pot, Bill and Enrique both ended up all in, prompting Brad to get out of the way.
