Texas Hold 'Em Tournament 2009
February 8th - Tour de Tori stop #1
The first stop in our 2009 fundraising buffet was the 5th annual CF Foundation Texas Hold 'em poker tournament and Casino Night. We were back at the FSN Lounge at Qwest Field again this year, where a tourney-capacity 180 players competed for a $10,000 seat at the World Series of Poker. Tori's Tilters were there once again, with Robert playing poker and Carol providing moral/shopping support. Jen Mueller from Fox Sports Northwest helped with the emcee duties.
The poker portion of the Tilters team made it to about 35th place, not bad but still out of the money. The shopping half of the team scored a couple of items at the silent auction. The crew from KISW's BJ Shea Morning Experience were at the tables as well.
