I am waiting on some more envelopes to arrive on Tuesday and will package everything at once and send all of the prizes out at once next week.

If your name is chosen you will be included in a group PM. Please send me your shipping addy as soon as you can so we can get these out to everyone.

Anyway, some of those people have become great friends.

Great friends, indeed!

My first meetup was the Great Divide a number of years ago run by @slisk250 - a man who was probably my first PCF friend and first person from the forum I ever met. Other than Mike I hadn’t met anyone yet, but @David O was kind enough to offer me a spot in his hotel room and ride share along with the honorable @DrStrange. That alone was gracious enough to this hither to stranger. The three of us met @k9dr at the airport and then all rumbled toward the pre-meetup game at @justsomedude’s studio where we met up with @inca911, @ChaosRock, and others. I ended up being seated at a table with both Paulo and Mark at a circus table where it was my first time really playing Omaha variants. Two things proceeded to occur. 1. Paulo taught me the danger of underboats. 2. Mark taught me that I may know the mechanics of Omaha, but I don’t really know how to play it very well (read as: “at all”). He didn’t use those words, of course…or any words at all other than “I callWelcome to PCF, kid. I paid them well for the lessons.

On the way home, David and Doc gave me a crash course in Omaha which let me know that, much like this post, I had played it all wrong. Since that’s how we first met, it only seemed fitting that I delay my response until *after* the giveaway had been done.

The lessons learned that night ended up serving as a life preserver to my bankroll for the weekend, and it ended up working out pretty well for the both of us - I won the main event (David took third), and David ended up spiking the case K on one of the final hands of the weekend to take in a huge cash pot.

Thanks for all the conversations, chips, and friendship over the years, mate!

Yes, that was a great meetup and a great time with great friends. I really have enjoyed our friendship and the calls saying, "Hey, I am passing through San Antonio, Want to grab lunch? ".

I was looking forward to your meetup but unfortunately, you had to cancel. Maybe sometime next year. Until then take care my friend and hope to see you at another meetup soon.
