OK We have 2 more participants in the poker tournament. We need at least 10 players to sign up by July 1st in order to have the tournament. If we do not have 10 participants, unfortunately the tournament will have to be canceled and another event added in it's place.

Add Bill and Nancy Cason to the game. We have not played since February and I will need a refresher game ahead of time.

Got yall on the list B&N. Since we have 5 signed up I am going to extend the registration until we get to the National. I am sure we can rustle (no pun intended) up 5 more players after we arrive.

We'll have a training course for those that need it before we start.

ENTRY FEE FOR THE TOURNAMENT IS CHANGED FROM $20 TO $10 A PERSON

ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED UNTIL MORNING OF THE TOURNAMENT !

Folks believe me the winners trophy is worth playing for. We need some more sign ups to make the tournament a success.

Hello Don,

Its been a couple of years since I have played but since you are going to have a refresher training session, sign me up. I may be able to get Beverly to try it too.

Paul Montgomery

Thanks Paul, I think you will have a blast and it is a very simple game so you will catch on quick.

Well Don, for $10.00 I might as well make a donation and sit at the table until all of my chips disappear. Just might get lucky and make eough back to by fuel for the trip back home.

You will have to run a pre-trainig session....

Ken

Thanks Ken,

We'll definately have a pre warmup session. Come on folks, if Ken Wilson can sign up I know a bunch more of you can too !

Trust me you'll have a ball ! Well almost as much fun as the ladies playing LCR.

Paul&Beverly · 07-04-2008, 08:10 PM
