Tommy Dags is Back!
next game feb. 20th
2008 player of the year, Tommy Dags, did not win a tournament in 2009. Well its a new year and Tommy is back, capturing the opening tourney of the year. He and John Sica were hanging by a thread all night but they both got hot late and came back to take the top two spots. They both thought that John was taking over on the last hand when they thought that John's pocket 9's had held up to Tommy's 5's until Brandon realized that Tommy hit a flush, and the match was over. (see photo below) Strong play by Vinny Farrell and Big Ted Sica dominated play for most of the night, but Tommy D and John started getting the cards late to knock them out. 19 players were in attendance including newcomer Jim McLynchy and Serge, both players having strong showings. VJ, Bob the Dude, and George also finished in the money.
At first glance they thought the 9's held up. Upon further review Tommy's got the flush and the first win of the season.

Some of the more bolder (and drunker) players braved the
cold after the game and into the wee hours of the morning .
drinking is so easy John and Brian can do it with their
eyes closed.
