Thanks Dan and Alicia! With all of the money that Winstar spent on radio, TV, outdoor, and alternative advertising, you would think that they would involve the media to further hype this event. But wait - that would make too much business sense.

Guy Nelson out at 120th and Lonny Hardcastle out at 65th…Shawn Rice was still in with good stack and Larry Kemp from Denison. Guy name Adam Wessley was chip leader when I Left.

If they added $18k to the top, I’m guessing they paid 144 spots and took the $18k from the bottom (6 spots x $3k).

When I left, James Smith (you old Ashton players and downtown players would know him) and the asian dude… I’m assuming Young Cho that was referenced on another post were heads up. Sean made a great showing going out in I think 7th place. Sorry not to have more concrete details than that, I couldn’t stand to stay in the final table room for very long. It was like watching paint dry. So my info is from a source that agonized through it and sent texts with info. God love ya.
