Touchdown! Greaser!
I'm participating in a Poker Run here in the Dallas area (weather permitting) on January 26th, and it got me thinking how INCREDIBLY FUN this would be with all my POA buddies at Gastons. What do you think?
All of the following are simply IDEAS and PROPOSALS... feel free to tear it up and make it better!!
Possible route (short, just 100nm round trip) is posted below. Leave anytime Saturday, open the cards around dinner Saturday night, so people can do it when it works for them. If weather is bad on Saturday, we can scrub it.
Fly to and pick up ONE playing card from each of the following airports:
Boone County (KHRO)
M. Graham Clark-Taney County (KPLK)
Marion County (Flippin) (KFLP)
Ozark Regional/Mountain Home (KBPK)
Gastons (3M0)
At each airport, pick up a playing card randomly from a sealed set of cards. Bring them all back to Gastons. Saturday night, around dinner, all the "players" buy in for $20 and get their 5th sealed card (random draw). Open your cards, look at your hand, have the option to buy ONE more card for $5, random draw, if you want it. Compose your best possible hand (throw out one card if you need to).
We show our hands, top three winners split the pot thusly:
1st place: 50% of the pot
2nd place: 30% of the pot
3rd place: 20% of the pot
Would be fun to have a custom designed Gastons Poker Run t-shirt for all participants... maybe a $25 buy-in, with $5 towards the shirt, $20 towards the pot.
Possible route:
Anybody "game"?
