Winners: 2004 Spring and Summer Poker Finals

Summer 2004: The Winners

The first poker hand was dealt at 12:30PM, and the last hand at 7:15PM. The eventual winner, an hour into the tournament, flopped a royal flush - and beat two players with Boats (full houses). Not a big pot at the time, but possibly an omen of what was to come. Mike Sullivan won $450 in cash and a cruise to the Bahamas. Sean won $300, and Bill took home $150 in cash.

Spring 2004: The Final Poker Table

Front Row L to R: Daniel, Fuji, Eric, Troy, and Heath
Back Row L to R: Duane, Brian Masters, and Kirk

All the players had to previously win a qualifying poker tournament and then beat all the other players to get this far. An approximate 500 poker players played throughout the tournament over the last 10 weeks. The Final Showdown game was played at Gibby's on Saturday night.

Players met at 5PM and enjoyed food and beverages before the start of the game. Seating assignments were then given and the players began. Ten minutes into the game, the first person was eliminated from the tournament. Seven hours later, the winner was finally decided. The last two players, "Fuji" and Duane battled it out from a half an hour before the final hand came down. Duane won the final hand with two pair, Jacks and Sixes.
