WOODLAND ELKS 1299 PRESENTS POKER MANIA 2015-16
We will have our TEXAS HOLD’EM POKER TOURNAMENT on Saturday, January 23. The tournament will start at 12 noon and end no later than 4pm. We are eliminating the $ 5.00 chips. The minimum chip will be $25.00. This will speed things up a little . To compensate we are increasing the amount of chips the players will receive from $1500.00 to $2000.00. The price of a buy-in will remain at $10.00 with the chance to make a second buy-in within the first hour of play. Prize money will be awarded depending on the number of players in each tournament. Lunch will be available for a mini-mal fee. The dates for the 2 tournaments we have planned are as follows:
JANUARY 23 FEBRUARY 27
Points will be awarded to each player as to where they place in each tournament depending on the number of players we have. If we have 18 players, 18 points will be awarded for first place, 17 for second etc. At the end of the February tournament, a trophy along with A GRAND PRIZE will be awarded to the player with the most points. The prize money for the individual tournaments will be awarded after each tournament. It is highly possible to miss a tournament or 2 and still win the grand prize. Profits from the tournaments will go to ELKS MAJOR PROJECT. Remember.....YOU MUST CALL THE ELKS OFFICE OR ME TO RESERVE A SEAT FOR EACH TOURNAMENT BY THE TOURNAMENT DEADLINE. NO CALL=NO SEAT. (530)662-9138 or (530)908-7632. The deadlines will be e-mailed to you or you can call the office.
