Here’s the email my buddy (and co-host) Zengy sent out announcing the winners from last nights tourney:
Hello All-
All I can say is “Holy Shit!” Last night’s tournament was the best we
have ever had. 30 guys started and we had 32 rebuys totaling a $2,125
final prize pool. (The room cost $175). The action at the final table
was more insane than a triple quack-quack. After a few grueling bad
beats, Andy Cohen stepped out of the way in 4th and handed the prize
money to…Poker author Jonathan Grotenstein who quietly edged into third place
taking home $425.Bill “Hostess with the Mostest” Rini rigged the tourney to take second
place, grabbing $635.And rookie Paul Taylor stole the top spot pocketing $1,060 (that’s
right, over a grand) and earned himself a seat in our tournament of
champions. (TBA)If you missed it, you missed a great night. We’ll see you at the next
event, tentatively planned for May.-Zengy, Bill, and (in spirit) Kevin
