"Sweety" was really on the move this evening visiting six different persons tonight after two weeks of visiting only one . She jumped off the table in the first hand of the first game to "Trooper" Tom Varnell . She then moved to Zeke "Da Zappa" Blocklinger in his game one. Next move went to Helen "The Hellion" Daniels seat but that was only for one game when John "Rotten" Reed asked for her in his game three. She was again on the move to J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast's seat again for only one game. Our newest member Jim Gustafson took her away in his game four. She was finally able to get some rest until "Trooper" Tom Varnell took her back where to where she started but not for long as Zeke "Da Zappa" Blocblinger grabbed her back again in his game seven an held on to collect the $16.00 from the last 24 Hand Pot.

EVENT HAPPENINGS

Don "Curly" Russell was on a roll tonight as he started by skunking "Bad Betty" Morehouse in his first game then won one more before his only loss of the night as he went on to win his last six games to complete a 17 Pt. 8 W 128 Spread Card for first place money and moved up in the point standings to third place tonight.

J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast also had a good night skunking John "Rotten" Reed in his first game and Helen "The Hellion" Daniels in his third before losing two of his next three games. He came back to win his last three games and turned in a 16 Pt. 7 W 135 Spread Card to finish in second place tonight.

John "Rotten" Reed took a lesson from "Bad Betty" and last week of either skunking or being skunked after he was skunked in his first game by J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast he waited until his third game to skunk "Bad Betty" Morehouse his fifth game he skunked Carl "The Wizard" Schaefer and in his seventh game skunked Susan "Little Red" Hall to complete a 13 Pt. 5 W 73 Spread Card for third place and increase his club point lead.

"Trooper" Tom Varnell had an odd night losing his first game winning the next three losing another then winning two more then lost another before winning his last one to complete his 12 Pt. 6 W 28 Spread card for fourth place cash and points tonight.

28/29 POOL

One attempt reported tonight to drain the pool. Carl "The Wizard" Schaefer was dealt a Q and three 5's but could only cut a 4 for no help. So the pool now stands at $401.00.

 Skunk Fund

             The skunk pot stamps were a little busier resulting in the fund becoming a bit more prosperous tonight. It received $1.75 by the end of the evening. WE STILL THANK ALL OF YOU!! !!
