EVENT HAPPENINGS 

 

          "Bad Betty" Morehouse started the night off losing her first game to Dick "The Grumbler" Taylor then whipped out seven games in a row skunking "Saweet Johnny" Hensley before giving up her last game to Helen "The Hellion" Daniels to complete her 15 Pt. 7 W 52 Spread card and capture first place.

 

                 "Old #1" Martin Hellberg won his first three games before losing his fourth game to "Bad Betty" Morehouse and his seventh game to Dave "Da Boz" Bosley while winning the two games      before and after the losses to complete his 14 Pt. 7 W 94 Spread card and capture second place.

   

                 "Saweet Johnny" Hensley alternated winning and losing all night except when he managed to put two games together before losing two and being skunked by first place finisher "Bad Betty" Morehouse in his eighth game to put together his 11 Pt  5 w 46 Spread card for his third place finish tonight.

          

                  Carl "The Wizard" Schafer  was also unable to put together any kind of a winning streak managing to come in fourth with his 10 Pt. 5 W 83 Spread card.

SPECIAL POOLS

 

     

     Carl "The Wizard" Schafer caught the 23 Hand in his first game tonight to open up all of the pools after six weeks. Then John "Rotten" Reed caught the Raggedy Ann in his second game and then Pat "Driller" Jungmann caught the 23 Hand in his third game to close out that hand also. Last but not least,  J.R. "The Spoiler" Cast in his game eight found the Wheel. So that leaves the Crib Flush and the Raggedy Andy as the only special hands open.

 

  28/29  POOL

 

       "Bad Betty" Morehouse besides taking home first place money attempted to drain the pool tonight with a Q and three 5's  failing by drawing only a 4, so it now stands at $411.00 after the thirteenth night of the season.

 

 Skunk Fund


        The skunk fund did not fare as well tonight.  It received only $0.75 by the end of the evening.   WE STILL THANK ALL OF YOU!!
