We play "free" poker at our local pub on most Tuesday and Wednesday nights. This league sends the top finishers to a regional tournament 3 times a year. This season, Duane and I both qualified to move on to the regional. It was held yesterday in Jacksonville, NC.
I think there were 176 entrants - at a large, smokey bar just outside the gates of Camp Lejeune. (I suspect this place really hops on Friday and Saturday nights!!) But, it was mostly a middle-aged, quiet poker crowd.....
Here I am at my final table - I ended up about 30th place - not bad, but not enough to get the trip to Vegas (the grand prize)! (I don't know what the guy beside me was doing - sleeping??) Fun time.

You didn't tell us how Duane did. Hope you all had fun. E
hey, he didn't do as well - he was maybe 60th place. one of our friends (we rode with them to jacksonville) was 22nd place . we all have played together for several years now, so it's alot of fun to get to go to these tournaments with people you know!
That looks like some serious poker - I've not got any 'poker face' at all - if I've got a good hand everyone else folds - I guess they know by my expression...
Ha...I love it! Poker chick among all those guys. What a great time....maybe Vegas next year, eh? ;)
yeah!! it's kindof nice to play against guys - they sometimes don't know how to "read" girls!
