Poker Wrap-Up

The Men’s Night poker train kept rolling last night and quad 9s on the board made a rare appearance. James Hsiao was the man with the largest stack to count at the end of the night and a missing 50¢ chip was donated to the A.M. New Cards Fund. Once again, a big thank you to Basil and Jada for keeping all post-play participants well hydrated—as expected, Smirnoff was up today.
