Who masterfully convered his wild card draw to the final table at the 15-17 DEC Orleans Blackjack Tournament into the First Place Trophy. As I recall, "at the count" all six of the players were within 20$ of each other. A well deserved win and a nice close to the year's activities. He was also one of the many of us who were forced to "overnight" is LAS with the record breaking snow and closure of the airport on the 17th. Chips
Way to go Rookie Congratulations Rookie on your Orleans win, sure makes for a nice early Christmas present.
Sweeet. I had considered trying to talk my way into an invite for it, but the post-wedding issues I've had for the event I did on the 13th just killed my plans. Here's hoping for more positive returns in '09!
