TOC Week Update

With the race still pretty tight for all positions, we will be having an interesting night. Hector, thanks to my lovely girlfriend for pointing out Friday night, is tied for last and must take a personal day and will not be playing. He used his bye last week, due to the weather, and must take a last place finish.
Brent is also taking quite a risk. He has a catering job tonight and must come late. His blinds will be forfeited, however he will still be able to play when he gets there. He may lose half his stack, but it will be enough to work with. He may also move up a spot from players who are knocked out before he ever arrives.
Clint M. rose above the mire last week and beat the slump he was in. His third place finish helped him slow down his increasing score and gave him the confidence he needed to end his last weeks in winning spots to catch up to the leaders.
Danny is taking his bye this week. This will help his score due to him being only one point lower than the four way tie for last place. This gives Chad, James and myself a chance to pass Danny or stay ahead and keep the pressure on.
With two players gone, the curse of the frog on Chad and so much at stake, tonight could very well catapult someone ahead of the pack and decide the rest of the Tournament of Champions.
