Now that's a classy result.

Nice, I've taken the lead for the first time as we go into to cup break, hopefully I haven't peaked too early and can hold on from here on out.

Yes, don't worry! I've been away (from daily) for about 2 weeks so now I'm picking up my projects again one by one.
I was planning to get this back on its feet in the next few days. But since you asked, I might as well do it this evening, I got some spare time right now |

Time to see who will go to the Cup Final and who won't! Will Vali make it to the final of a knockout competition once again? Let's find out!
Vali | vs | jaxika | 9 | | 12 | 3 | | 7 | 8 | | 1 | jandal7 | vs | marcovdw | 10 | | 10 | 0 | | 0 | 10 | | 10 | | | | REMATCH: | jandal7 | vs | marcovdw | 7 | | 10 | 7 | | 10 | 6 | | 0 |
An incredible set of semi-finals! Vali gets knocked out by the bronze medal at the most recent World Championships, jaxika. It's Vali's very first time he loses in a knockout duel. A unique achievement on itself, but it won't ease the pain of losing today!
On the other hand, marcovdw and jandal7 played an exact equal hand. So a rematch was necessary. The first two sets were exactly the same, giving marcovdw a ticket to the big finale in the Butler Cup!
Butler cup - Finals Preview
Jaxika will play marcovdw in the finals. It'll be an evenly matched game, the bookies will have to give 50/50 chances at this one. We're already looking forward to it! |

Great to see this continue.
Not so great though to see me bow out of the Cup.

Match Day 11 has arrived. Including today, there are five match days left. So let's make the most of them!
matt17br |  vs | jandal7 | 10 | | 1 | 10 | | 8 | 0 | | 11 | | | | Luxemburger |  vs | knockout | 10 | | 10 | 2 | | 8 | 8 | | 2 | trekbmc |  vs | jihardy | 1 | | 7 | 7 | | 9 | 12 | | 4 | | | | SSJ2Luigi |  vs | marcovdw | 11 | | 4 | 6 | | 9 | 3 | | 7 | weirdskyfan64 |  vs | AbhishekLFC | 0 | | 10 | 10 | | 0 | 10 | | 10 | | | | selwink |  vs | sammyt93 | 0 | | 10 | 0 | | 7 | 0 | | 3 | Vali |  vs | jaxika | 12 | | 1 | 7 | | 8 | 1 | | 11 | | | | lakebeach |  vs | Marsupilami | 2 | | 0 | 7 | | 10 | 11 | | 10 |
Quite some 3-pointers this round, and one important no-show. With four matches left, sammy has taken a 2 point lead over jaxika and 3 points over matt. This might turn out to be the tipping point in the league. But who can say for sure?
Mathematically, everyone except jandal can still win, though. So there's no reason to give up just yet. In High Risk, anything is possible!
Match of the Week: lakebeach and Mars gave us an exciting time. The last set was one of the closest ones in recent history and in the end lakebeach took 2 important points to keep himself in the running and probably ruining Mars' last hope of still making something of this league championship.

Match Day 12. Four match days left. That means the amount of points possibly won is diminishing. There are still those who need a comeback, they'll need to act soon. Sammy has taken a small lead and will want to keep it all the way to the end!

I must have taken over the role of most intimidating player by now as I think that was the third of fourth time that I've scared my opponent into a no show.
not exactly how I'd want to pull clear but the 3 points is nice, especially seeing as I made the initial deadline

I think I have never scared players away so far, but still happy about the full 3 points

Another round, another loss seens to be my new motto.
