Apart from taking four hours longer than planned, the Bradoween open was a rocking success. We're hoping for full tourney reports from the winners. Some have already written. Your humble host (that's me) made a play shortly after the first break and got caught. Sadly, I got caught by a guy who thought he had a boat but only had ace-high. Further, sadly, I didn't even have Ace high. It was a bad move on my part, regardless.
Of the 33 entries, here are your money winners:
1) Reilly--Boston, MA--$300
2) Team Scott Smith--Simpsonville, SC--$150
3) David M.--Atlanta, GA--$100
4) CJ--Lafayette, LA--$70
5)John "BadBlood" D.--Greenville, SC--$40
Badblood already has his tourney report online. Check it out. CJ plans to write one up soon and we're asking for one from guest blogger, Reilly. I have some pictures that will go up soon as well.
Congrats to all the winners, and the few that went out just short of the money after playing for seven hours straight.
The Poker was good. The money was great. Seeing so many good poeple was fantastic.
Are you sure I didn't have that boat?

Posted by: Twaller at June 21, 2004 4:10 PMGreat job on the tourney! Glad there were so many cool people there.
I apologize to Team Scott Smith for repeatedly calling him Steve. I hope I didn't offend.
I was puzzled as to why so few people were impressed with my chip shuffling, because, you know, I was impressed.
Keep me in mind for future tourneys - had too much fun for human consumption.
And thanks again.
Posted by: BadBlood at June 21, 2004 4:21 PMIt takes a lot more than that to offend Scott Smith!!! And Scott's got the "I'm-too-drunk-to-play" schtick down to a science!
It was a blast... and my write up should be up tonight.
Posted by: CJ at June 21, 2004 4:50 PMIt is truly unbelievable how many times in my life that I have been called Steve. It's as if the while world has this inside joke that they conspire to call me Steve. Weird.
Yes, i was impressed by your shuffling. I just can't do it, and don't want you to get a big head at the poker table.
