Week 1

I have created this blog for those of you who play texas hold-em with us at Lu-Vegas. It was made to keep up with upcoming events,announcements and points standings.

Week 1: Feb.19th. David Hunt took down the inaugural Lu-Vegas Texas Hold em tournament. Chris Peake took second,while Gene Branham recorded a third place finish. Chris also collected the $25 bounty by eliminating Dean Branham. A cash game followed which lasted until 3:30 am in the morning,where Scott Hoffman walked the dog! Good times had by all...Props to Kyle Winslow for his first career Royal Flush...
Points were awarded for tourney finish. Everyone who participated received 1 pt. Points will be accumulated until July 2nd,where the points leader will receive $200 2nd place gets $50.
Current Lu-Vegas Tournament Standings:
1.David Hunt 10 pts,
2.Chris Peake 5 pts.
3.Gene Branham 3 pts.
Tied 4th Emery,Wooten,Dean,Ralph,Eric,Winslow,Hoffman,Rietveld,Ralph,Deric and Mickey with 1 pt each. Still plenty of time guys.
Thanks to all that came,we'll be doing it every week with the possibility of a Thursday game breaking in soon. Looking to add a $3/6 limit game and possibly a 7-stud game in the future.

Week 2 Feb.26th We will be playing again this week.$50 tourney,followed by $50 buy-in cash game. Once again,we will have food and drinks as well as the UFC fight Penn/Fitch. Come out,make some cash,hang out with some cool people and have a good time!
This week,along with the $25 bounty in the tourney,we will have an optional $10 high hand pool,$50 for a 2-card Royal Flush and the ability to bet on yourself to win the tourney paying 2 to 1 odds.
The cash game will have a $100 2-card Royal Flush pot. $50 bad-beat progressive pool if you are beaten holding quad 8's or better which will increase each week until it's hit!

***Announcement***There will be a $125 buy-in Big Dog tournament scheduled for March 19th,where one entrant will be drawn to get his entry back(nothing better than a freeroll) and 4 $25 bounties will be in play. Excellent chance to make a nice paybay. More details to come. Any questions,text/call/email me or shoot me a fb message. Until next time...good luck gentlemen!
