The Raging V Poker Club - GRAND FINALE TOURNAMENT - Results and Pictures

The Raging V Poker Club had it's GRAND FINALE TOURNAMENT with $100 buy in on September 24th, and let me tell you - there were shenanigans!

T-Mart did a great job selecting a diamond encrusted bracelet for this big buy in event

A new tradition - the last winner gets the dartboard!

The few, the proud, the brave

"VDub, a card carrying banger!"  If I could only find the picture of this as a merkin...

VDub pushes all in with snowmen and Wren-a-gade smashes out a straight flush - how's that grab you for a cold deck?  (Ironically VDub felts Wren-a-gade's 8s in the cash game later..)

Verve Pipe and Wren.  (Strangely "The Freshman" by the Verve Pipe played at some point during the night)

The drink tell.....there were a LOT of drink tells!

Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner, WREN-A-GADE!  Congrats!

Verve squeeked into second as the big stacks butted heads in a monster pot.

3rd, but not degected.  I love this picture!

The cash game

This event was the first buy in this large and the girls really showed some deft poker skills.  I think they would have preferred the blinds to stay at 25 / 50 forever, but I'm sure the game would still be going if it was.  The game was cautious but not without some sweet bluffs and creative plays.

I know there has been a lot of interest in this league and although a buy in of this size is for a select few, the next game should have a buy in that will fill the room!

Thanks for letting me be the guest dealer, sorry for not wearing appropriate attire.  Congratulations Wren-a-gade, you played great and kicked ass!
