Okay, this is late but it's worth posting. Congratulations to Justin for winning our second Support My Tribe poker game! His prize was a 24x30 canvas print of my Skull of Suits piece! We raised $500 that was split and given to two friends who were having financial struggles.
Tim busted out first and won the sheep but since he rebought this prize ended up with Courtney.
Beertuck busted out second and won a lovely hat!
First SMT Poker Tournament

This past Saturday Cassandra and I hosted our first Support My Tribe poker game. First prize was a box-framed canvas print (24x30 inches) of some poker art work I had created + a print. Second place got two prints, third and fourth each got a print.
The battle was fierce. Ken stepped up early with some hyper-aggressive play and started bullying the table by instilling fear in their hearts. The hand of the night occured when Mike flopped a full house and baited a trap for Ken. They got all-in on the turn and Ken flipped over kings; he was dead to a king.... which happened to fall on the river (3.8% odds). Ken added to his stack.
A short time afterwards Landa got involved in a few hands with Ken and started adding to her stack. It wasn't long before she took over and we had a new chip leader! Steph watch Ken and Dan and Landa battle and eventually Landa prevailed. Steph and Landa remained. At this point Landa had about 95% of the chips on the table so the heads-up action was shortlived and Landay took it down!
Thanks so much to the 11 players that cam to play. Prizes were all art and all proceeds from player buy-ins, as well as a few print sales, go to the SMT fund. We raised $400 with this game and those funds will be given to two friends who have been in rough shape financial due to medical issues.
