Annual Changepointe Men's Poker Night

Posted By Matt

"Changepointe Guys Poker night - deal me in"  - Gretchen's contribution to the evening before hiding upstairs with the kids while 24 guys enjoyed pizza and poker.  We've hosted this for several years now and it's always fun to raise money for a good ministry - Samaritan's Purse.

Guy's playing poker montage:
Table 1: Charlie, Bud, Denny, Jericho, Mike, Dan, Matt B and Henry

 Table 2: Scott, Dave T, Tom, Dave K, Rick, Jason, Dan S,and John

 Table 3: David D, Marcus, Jason M, Jason G, Scott M, Me, Tim and Jodi

Last year, we started the traveling trophy for the first guy eliminated.  David held onto this "Action Figure" for a year and he was more than thrilled to pass it on to Rick this year.  I wanted no part of that trophy.  I didn't want to be the first guy out in my own house and then wait for hours for everybody to leave while I sat in misery by myself...

Like this:
How lonely and boring.  Ah, Rick.

The final 10 at the final table.

Hours later...
Somehow, we got down to these three :)

Final results:
  Tom Seiler - 1st Place
  Bud DeGraff - 2nd Place
  Matt Weis - 3rd Place
... twenty other guys...
  Rick Adamich - Last Place

  We raised enough money to stock a fish pond and bring some dairy animals to a small village in a third world country - Just from playing poker! :)

  Thanks guys, for an awesome time.  See you next year!
