In a monumental Friday that setup max drama heading into the final 4 days of the League Qualifier for February, a long month of near misses and close calls for the community changed in a hurry, as sparks flew last night. AsinineBovine became our first qualifier for the league championship at the end of April winning the $4.40 1k guaranteed at almost 3 in the morning to secure his spot in the finals. With the win he can now relax and enjoy himself while still battling to win our monthly ring in the league events, knowing he will be one of the select few competing for those 2 WSOP trips at the end of season 1.

Meanwhile it was Jukomane coming off the most painful of finishes this week, coming back with an 8th place finish in the $3.30 2k to capture the lead over Emerson1030. If the league ended right now Jukomane would be the second qualifier to the finals via the monthly league qualifier, and certainly is a nice consolation place to be in with only 4 days left in league qualifiers. With Emerson1030 just 3 points back and a host of others within a top 3 finish from the top of the leaderboard the battle for our first 100k Studios ring will likely come down to the wire tuesday night...
