Here's the Hall of Fame (past years' winners)

We're moving it to January this year as the holidays are a crazy time to get people when they are free....so this year it's Sat Jan 30th! We expanded to three tables last year and I wouldn't be surprised if we went to four tables this year.

And last year we gave out money prizes to the top five as I don't want the stakes to get too high amongst friends and family. We had two teenagers in the money that were first time players - my point is...if you're willing to learn, please come. The game is easy and everyone is keen on helping.

The game is Texas Hold 'Em Poker. If you know the ranking of poker hands, the rest is easy. Here are some basic rules to familiarize yourself with the game.

I snagged a few of the more common poker terms that you may hear while playin. You don't need to know them but it sure helps make the game easier for you.

Here are the tournament rules. You may want to read to understand how it all works. You may be moved from table to table during play and this explains how it's done.

I also found this great poker chip calculator to figure out how many chips we need...you may find it handy if you organize one of these. And here is a great formula that I use to keep the tourney to about 4 hours.

I don't think anyone coming is a poker star so don't be afraid to join in regardless of your poker experience. Everyone helps one another to learn.

The buy-in is a mere $10 and we'll have a time limit for additional buy-ins if you chose. We'll split the money up amongst the winners (probably top-five this year).

It's a fun and social night - come for drinks and snacks. It's a co-ed event and kids are welcome if you are unable to get a sitter. The basement is usually the kid-zone but if we have to put a fourth table up, that'll have to be downstairs with the kids.

Please RSVP (call, online or on Facebook) so we know who's coming. We'll most likely need chairs so bring folding card-table chairs if you have them.
