    Has anyone else gone to this poker tourney that 94.5 The Buzz is putting on at Hush off I-10? I got lucky and was picked out of the crowd for one of the remaining seats last week. With some solid play I ended up winning my table and am invited back to the finals on Nov. 5th. So it will be me and the 59 other winners fighting for the entry fee, hotel, and airfare to the 2005 WSOP. Just wondering if anyone else has gone and if they got to play.

    Link is provided below for anyone wanting to go tonight. Its the last chance to win a seat in the finals. The usually give away 30-40 seats due to no-shows at this thing so your chances are not terrible.

    Thanks and good luck to you as well. They pick the remaining seats by drawing names. You'll sign-in once you get there and then they begin to call names to fill any remaining seats. Let me know how you do.

    i didnt end up doing much. i just went out quietly. i kept flopping 2 pair on hands that i folded because the blinds were getting high and i couldnt stay in with those cards, hahah (happened twice!). i got 6th at my table and my friend counted me at about #50 out of the 100 that were there playing. oh well, it was fun... but anyways, good luck on your next tourny and be sure to let us know how you do

    Just got my e-mail from Rod Ryan with the format for tonight. I was listening on the radio this morning and Sam Farha is going to be there tonight! Hope I get to meet him. I got the chance to meet Matt Dean last time after I won and he was a really nice guy. I need the ClutchFans karma going for me tonight!!!
