Welcome to the weekly rundown of the Global Poker League here on PokerNews. In this space, all of the past week's results from the GPL will be listed followed by league standings and a look at the following week's schedule.
It was the final week of GPL action before a month-long hiatus prior to the playoffs. The top four teams in each conference made the playoffs and the team most at risk of slipping out of playoff position in the Americas Conference was the San Francisco Rush. The Rush, who opened the season in the basement, managed to climb into fourth but were ahead of the fifth-place New York Rounders by just three points.
