First of all I would like to thank EVERYONE who played in the tournament! They are listed at the bottom of this post. I had 19 confirmed, but Norm Clem & Roger Herman did not show. That put us at 17, but I talked Barry Hauptman into playing. That got us back up to 18. I think everyone had a great time. I would also like to thank the M Casino & poker room manager Todd "Beek" Buechler for hosting the tournament for the second year now. They will also be hosting it again next year & the date is already set for Saturday, October 19th 2013. Mark it on your calendar & make plans to join us next year.
Todd "Beek" Buechler was the first one out as he got his Aces cracked a few hands into the tournament.
Not only did Jay Sands come in second, but he cleaned up on the bounties. Knocking both myself & David Sarles out & winning the two Cactus Pete's $5 chips AND the $5 M Oversized Baccarat chip!
