Once again The Grand Poker Club members did 50% or better in cashing in our big once a month tournament.
Five out of the ten players who cashed this month were members of our Poker Club!!
We had a total of 50 players this month and the ten finalists got $200 each. $200 is the least payout by our payout rules. The buy in is just $40 and the payout is always five times your buy-in, meaning $200 is the least you can win for this tournament.
Come join your fellow club members for this special tournament the 2 Sunday of every month.

As something to pass on to all in the club
We had 48 people come to play today. The Mother’s Day Cake went over big with all that attended.The payout for a $40 dollar entry fee today was $240 dollars each for the eight finalist players.
We always pay a minimum of $200 dollars for this tournament. Five times your buy-in.
Sun City Grand players dominated the payout list.
Five out of the eight players were from "The Grand"!!!!!!!!!!!
Sandy, Kurt, and Black Bart,
who are the tournament committee, want to thank the help of
several Grand members. Without their help we could never do this.

Drear Members,
We are back to splashing pots again …..please don’t splash.
Tournament Directors: We thank you for volunteering for this thankless job.
-
Assign Table Captains
-
If you get knocked out early you must appoint another player to do the closing, which includes putting computer, cards, chips, etc. back in the cabinets, locking all the cabinets, returning all keys to the key box, writing up the results and placing the sheet in the red binder in cabinet #3, etc.
-
If you cannot get someone to take over for you, then it is your responsibility to stay until the end and close up as noted above. (This is where the “thankless job” kicks in.)
Table Captains: Please control your table.
-
Speak up if players are splashing pots, commenting on whether another player should call a bet, commenting on the way others play, bet, etc.
-
If you get knocked out, either you or the Tournament Director must appoint another Table Captain to replace you.
-
If you are not sure how to handle a situation, call for the Tournament Director. Whatever is decided, right or wrong, the ruling stands.
That’s All Folks

We continue to have problems at the tables and ask that Table Captains please help us enforce our club rules.
-
ABSOLUTELY NO EATING at the tables. That includes candy, no matter how small (like jelly beans). Table covers are getting sticky again with people puting candy in their mouth and then wiping their hands on the felt.
-
CELL PHONES: Put them on silence or vibration. Don’t pass them around to show pictures, game scores, etc. Leave the table if you have to use the phone. We strongly encourage you to leave the room, especially for prolonged conversations.
