Event 4 Results: How the Players Did
The points for Event 4 were hard-fought, with each player bringing their A-game. Here’s how the points shook out:
John – 16 points
John delivered a standout performance, taking home the highest points of the night. His consistency was key, and he capped things off with a solid finish in Round 1 (5 points). John’s strong showing moves him up in the rankings and keeps him firmly in contention for the season.
Luc – 15 points
Luc was right on John’s tail, earning 15 points. He dominated Round 3 with 6 points, showcasing his ability to take charge when it matters most. While he couldn’t catch John this time, Luc’s solid performance keeps him in the hunt for the overall lead.
Joe – 13 points
The host of the event, Joe, had a mixed night but still finished with a respectable 13 points. His standout rounds were Round 3 and Round 4, where he earned 5 points each. Joe’s performance was steady, though he’ll be looking for more in the upcoming events.
Mark – 12 points
Mark had a strong start with 6 points in Round 1 but couldn’t quite maintain that pace throughout the night. His steady performance kept him in the middle of the pack, but he’ll need to be more consistent if he wants to climb the standings.
Asbell – 10 points
Asbell’s night was more low-key compared to the leaders, but he still earned 10 points. His Round 1 and Round 2 performances (4 points each) helped keep him competitive, though he couldn’t quite make a charge for the top spots.
Tony – 7 points
Tony had a tough night, finishing with 7 points. His best round was Round 2 (3 points), but he couldn’t put together the strong finish needed to keep up with the leaders. Tony will be looking to bounce back in the next event.
Year-to-Date Gross Winnings: Who’s in the Money
When it comes to gross earnings for the year, Luc is still on top, but Asbell is making a serious push to catch up. Here’s a look at the current standings in gross winnings:
Luc – $250
Luc has continued to perform well at the table and leads the pack with $250 in gross winnings. His consistent finishes and high placements have kept him at the top.
Asbell – $155
Asbell is closing the gap and is now in second place. His steady performance this season has paid off, and he’s now in striking distance of Luc’s top spot. Asbell’s recent climb to the top of the leaderboard (after Event 4) shows he’s a force to be reckoned with.
Tony – $145
Tony’s been a consistent presence in the money and sits comfortably in third place with $145 in gross winnings. While his performance in Event 4 wasn’t his best, Tony has shown he can deliver when it counts.
John – $110
John continues to be competitive and is now in fourth place with $110 in earnings. His performance in Event 4 has boosted his total, and he’s definitely in the running for a top spot by the end of the season.
Mark – $100
Mark is right behind John with $100 in gross winnings. His consistent finishes keep him in the mix, but he’ll need to up his game to break into the top tier of earners.
Joe – $90
Despite hosting the event, Joe hasn’t been able to convert his poker skills into big earnings this season. He’s sitting at $90 in gross winnings but will need to start cashing in more to close the gap.
Keith – $30
Keith has been a bit quiet this season, earning only $30 in gross winnings. However, he’s capable of breaking out, and a few big finishes could quickly move him up the rankings.
Tyler – $30
Tyler is in a similar position to Keith, earning $30 in gross winnings. While he hasn’t made a huge impact yet, his potential to turn things around remains.
Duane – $0
Duane is still looking for his first cash of the season. Despite being consistent in his efforts, Duane has yet to break through, but he’ll be looking for a breakthrough performance soon.
Net Winnings: The Push for Profit
When it comes to net winnings, Luc is still on top, but some players are struggling with losses. Here’s how the net winnings break down so far:
Luc – $110
Luc is also leading in net winnings, reflecting his consistent success at the tables. He’s been able to turn his strong performances into actual cash, which keeps him ahead of the pack.
John – $40
John’s solid performances have earned him a $40 net win. While it’s not as high as Luc’s, he’s still in the black and remains a top contender for the season.
Asbell – $15

Tony – $5
Tony has managed to stay in the green, though his net winnings are modest. A few more top finishes could see him climbing higher.
Mark – -$40
