NPP Live Get Together at T3chlady’s – Nice!

Katie Price was just floored by Derf-63's poker talent!

Many more wanted to attend, but with the outstanding fast paced organizational effort by Derf-63 (Fred) and the hospitality of the Tech Lady (Jean) for the location, only eight of us were able to coordinate our schedules for this Saturday night dinner and poker tournament.

Special thanks to Absea98 (Gary) and his lovely wife Suetman123 (Claudia) for driving all the way from the Grand Rapids side of the state to be here!

Jean made the chili, Sanster89 (Dave) brought some wings, Absea98 (Gary) and Suetman123 (Claudia) brought veggies and desserts and Faldo brought the beer. But Faldo appeared to be the only alcoholic abuser in the group. Planned by Faldo?……….uh, Faldo takes the 5^th . No, not that kind of 5^th, the Amemdment type of 5^th.

Others brought other stuff too, but with Faldo controlling the beer flow, it all gets a little hazy.

After dinner and some discussions about politics, poker, how we all got into poker, and how we wound up at NPP, we retired to T3’s card room to shuffle up and deal!

The line up was:

Seat 1 – Theedouble*d

Seat 2 – Mikeniks – Faldo

Seat 3 – Sanster89

Seat 4 – Derf-63

Seat 5 – Suetman123

Seat 6 – Absea98

Seat 7 – T3chlady

Seat 8 – LittleRedElf

Theedouble*d (Don) got out to an early lead, but had some setbacks before his (JJ) lost the race to LittleRedElf’s (AK) when an Ace fell.

Faldo was card dead all night and when Faldo finally got all-in with (As Ks) against LittleRedElf’s (AJ), a Jack on the board put Faldo out of his misery.

Sanster89 was the next one out. Faldo and Theedouble*d took over dealing, so the notes stopped (oh, and Faldo worked on putting a dent in the beer inventory since Faldo was not driving.)

T3chlady was next out.

LittleRedElf exited next on a similar hand to Faldo’s exit – with Derf-63’s help.

That left the 3 prize winner!

Absea98 finished 3^rd, Suetman123 2^nd and Derf-63 took 1^st place! Nice job Derf!

NPP is looking to put an outing together to head to the Firekeepers (Moneykeepers) Casino in Battle Creek in February. We might have to push it to March.

Anyone interested in going, please email Faldo your available weekend dates and Faldo will find the best matches for the most NPP participants.

Thanks again to T3chlady and Derf-63 for pulling this event together. See you on January 6^th for the start of the 21^st NPP season.
