Jack Davis
Look how he is smiling after winning the Omaha High/Low Tournament.
It was a good win, maybe he is having serious thoughts about the
next one.

 Christie
Reinig was the last woman at the tables so she got
the bracelet for best female player, then she finished 4th overall in
the tournament, very impressive play. That's showing them women can
play!
 Doc
Jones what can I say!! He was
jumping up and down and so was everyone else, the only person that
didn't want him to win was the one (Danner) he was heads up with in
the tournament and I'm not sure about that one either.
Doc has been with the league
since the beginning (5years) and has been one of the best ambassadors
for our league.
Great
Play Doc.
The play in the Bracelet Tournament was some of the
best we have seen in the last 5 years. Everyone was serious about
their game. Dealing gave me the chance to see some of the best plays,
great lay downs and super calls. Thanks to all the
players for a fine tournament.
Rules at the Table
Lets go over some of the rules and common courtesy at the poker table.
The Tennessee Poker League tries- to the best of our abilities- to
stay with the rules that the WSOP and other professional groups
play by.
All poker rooms in casinos are now smoke free.
We started that last year and with few exceptions it has worked well.
Phones are not allowed at the table during a
tournament. They are allowed in cash games, however--you will
be dealt around if you are on the phone and your hand will be declared
dead if you answer it after you have cards.
Discussing the board is something that should
not be done. If you were playing in a cash game and it had a bad beat
jackpot the house could call the hands dead if someone at the table
was talking about the flop. Besides that--you give the players the
unfair advantage of your thoughts of what is possible. Perhaps they
had not seen the same thing or the possibility of the hand. |
