The East's Beast is officially BNR, PFN fell short last week in a match that could have gone either way Dina has all but wrapped up the best record in the East while ICA in the West has done the same. Everything is pretty much set for the playoffs if by some miracle MIB can beat BNR things could suddenly get interesting. Playoffs are finally within reach and the all-star team will be officially announced after Wednesdays FR vs DS match. Keep a lookout in the shout box for your id, see if you're good enough to make the all-star team. Also, keep in mind that the all-star game decides if your division gets home-field for the WSOP finale so please take this match seriously don't forget your team could end up in the finale. IF we were going into the playoffs this week this is how it would breakdown...
PFN vs SPS winner takes on BNR
FR vs LPL winner takes on ICA
EASTERN DIVISION MATCHES
Jason, here is your chance to shine. IF you can prove you're good enough to beat PFN Monday you might just be good enough to beat them again in the playoffs. This match could get pretty intense, there are a lot of past issues built up on both sides so don't get surprised if this match gets ugly. I recommend sticking around for the show :). Jason will surely take this match to heart, he will bring the strongest team possible and he could potentially squeak out a win.
Andy will either do one of two things in this match; A, bring his scrubs to get people eligible, or B, bring his strongest possible team and try to smash SPS back to the stone-age. I wont try to guess which option he will take but it might be quite intriguing for you to contemplate. Andy could potentially end SPS' playoffs before they even begin if he can beat them Monday. This all comes down to who wants this win more, Monday @6pm we will find out!
Outcome: 4-3 PFN
MIB vs BNR, Monday @7pm, Room: Back to School
Rich needs a big showing here, a miracle outcome. If Rich can pull off a win here he can put himself back into the playoff hunt. The only problem Rich has is that winning this match will not assure him a playoff spot. He gave up that luxury last week when he lost a very, very close match to SPS who now holds the coveted last spot. Rich will bring a team this week but will it be good enough to surpass the East leading BNR? I think not.
Dina, you pickup this win and you assure yourself the all-star captain spot and secure the top seed in the East. She has pretty much wrapped up both of those already but you never know... MIB could go 5-1 and PFN could potentially 6-0 SPS. That outcome is theoretically possible but highly unlikely. None-the-less keep this in your mind Dina, don't take anything for granted or things might be shaken up in the East this week.
Outcome: 4-2 BNR

What a mess last week was for ICA. Craig was his usual self, prevents a questionable DQ and takes a yahoo glitch for the win. Cam runs table vs Sean just in time to prevent FR from noticing he wasn't eligible to play. I could go on but I have said enough to prove a point. IF ICA continues playing matches with a short list of players that are questionable their luck will run out soon enough. ICA has lost a few people and it will effect their playoff chances dramatically. IF you need proof refer to UIC playoffs...
Will LPL beat ICA again or will they no show like they did vs DS? So many questions, one thing i do know is that nothing is on the line for this match but positioning. The only thing that LPL can do is steal home-field from FR and get themselves an extra all-star. Will it happen? I think not... My money is on both teams not showing for this match.
Outcome: 3-1 ICA
FR vs DS, Wednesday @6pm, Room: Beetle Spot
FR shouldn't be worried at this point they have locked a playoff spot, all but secured home-field, have 2 all-star players, and are favored to win the West now that ICA are short players. Sure, ICA beat them last week but it was amazingly lucky. I don't suspect that to happen again. Not many can run the table on a team 3 times in a season and it surely wont be ICA. Look out FR don't get soft, you need to win this match to officially lock home-field. You might not need it though if LPL doesn't show for the big playoff match.
DS, your season was over long ago but you show with a full team week in and out. I admire your heart and I hope that we see you again next season. IF I had a vote in the Sports of the Year I would vote for DS. They are courteous, friendly, etc., etc. Sadly none of that gets you into the playoffs :(. I hope the best for you DS, next season could be your breakout year!
Outcome: 4-2 FR
