Hand of The Night: No massive hands spring to mind
Bad Beat of the Night: Tommy Rapes Andy with a 5/6 vs K/Q bad beat.

Well the dust has finally settled on Season 4 and what a season it was. Statistically the closest season by far, everybody got a piece of the action and had their moment in the sun. The final games played out pretty much as predicted. Worthy wins went to Tony and Tommy (second and third in the APBA league respectively) with the Green Machine also taking a hard fought point.

The first game, however, was really a race for the top of the table. With the Brim and Monkey Spunk both requiring a double to win the league, game one was tight. No-one wanted to concede chips and in the end the Wookie scored the 2 required to secure the league with the Brim taking one and Monkey Spunk failing to point.

Monkey Spunk has had the season of his life and game two gave him the opportunity to overtake Brim, secure second place and the player of the season award. Happy days.

Although the CIA and the Baptist failed to point it is worth noting that both had strong nights at the table. In fact in game one there were still six players at £500/£1000 blinds. No one had a bad night of poker.

For the Wookie this has been the perfect season. He topped the league, the APBA table, the wins table and (oddly) even won the spoon. He has now equalled the Brims two season wins and is catching him on the chart of champions. However....

Coming up in Season 5

It will be a few weeks before season five kicks off, but here are my predictions:

• Tommy and Tony will both be in attendance with greater regularity; and
• Evert, Andy and Tommy will Tighten their games; while
• Jof, Mike, Steve and Tony will loosten up; and 
• Chris will start paying attention....
• ...all this will mean that the table tightens up terribly and the title race becomes anyones; and that means
• Season 5 we will see a new winner - and here's my prediction:
