Last night was out once per quarter Rivermark Dad's Texas Hold 'Em poker tournament. This tourney has been going on now for 4 years and has a rather hilarious trophy which is a giant (2 ft tall) Golden Horse which the winner gets to keep until the next round.
There are some serious players in this game including several who go to Las Vegas for some of the main event international poker tournaments. They play here because it is a well run game with reasonable payouts for a nights work. 30-33 people usually start off and the final 6 in the game get paid.
Last night I had a pretty good night (I am used to getting to the final table which is the last 10 players) but rarely finish in the money. I touched money and came home with $100 for 6th place which was more than double what I put in.
Just FYI first prize took home $750 which is pretty good for 5 hours work!
