Sadler and Carter Poker Supply
The third event of 2008 is in the record books
Last night was the third event in 2008 WSOP freeroll series. We had a great turnout even thought the weather didn’t cooperate very well. The rain came in fast about an hour before the cards were in the air but everyone braved the weather and came out to play some great poker. With over 90 players I decided to sit this one out and act as TD (tournament director). Plus I could not let playing cards get in the way of drinking on Rays tab which I beat him out of on Friday afternoon.Ray got to play in the tournament and put on a ROMO like performance. Donk’n his way through about half of the tournament. In his defense the Cowboys were choking and he could not concentrate on the cards. Poor Romo had a terrible game but some how the Boys still pulled out a win. Seems shaky!!!
The final table had some familiar faces from this season and last couple of seasons. The “Durb” made the final table for the first time this season and made a critical mistake when he raised not noticing a player in front of him had already raised. Losing most of his chips on that hand his tournament life was in a nose dive that he could not pull out of. Mr.Hayhill Mayhall made the final table for the second week in a row and has already won an event. Very nice showing ED!!! The tournament got heads up with Mr. H (Jim Hoffpaur) and Ronnie “I might show up” Bledsoe. As the tournament grinded on most people were gathered around the bar watching the dramatic finish to the football game. About the same time as the game finished all the chips got pushed into the middle. Bledsoe with K-K and Mr. H with Q-9. Flop comes J-10-8.…WOW….nice work Mr. H. The turn brought a king giving Ronnie a little hope. The river came 10 giving Ronnie a full house and the victory. Nice Catch Good job Bledsoe!!!! Another great event with some great people, great food and great poker. I sure do enjoy playing and just hanging out with everyone.The next event is scheduled for Oct. 22nd. Registration should be open later this week. Points and final table finishers will be posted later this week also. Hope everyone is enjoying the new venue and look forward to seeing you at the next event.  Â

Sounds like a Bodog hand there at the end. Wish I had stuck around to see it.
Steve, can you put the total number of people that played when you list the final table folk? Just thought it would be nice to see how many were there when you look at the list. I usually just guess 90ish since the place is always packed.

I agree Ed it sounds a little shaky but I was told about the hand from a guy that heard it from another guy who’s sister knew the guys mom that won the tourney.
I will see what I can do about posting the final numbers of each tourney. Should not be a problem.
