No bluffs about it, the SNMag poker tournament went all in!
On November 1, working closely in conjunction with the card sharks at Absolute Poker, SNMag hosted the “Wednesday Night Showdown,” a free online poker tournament pitting 624 participants from all over the state against each other. The top ten players were lucky enough to receive a free seat (worth $225) at the AP $100,000 Guarantee Weekly Poker Tournament. The top five, in addition to the free tournament entry, were deemed especially lethal and received cash prizes.
5th Place: $100 cash prize
Selina Norton
“The funny thing about this is my husband has been playing for a long time and he wanted to win this tournament really bad, but he came up short (24th) and I won. Now I have bragging rights over him.”
4th Place: $200 cash prize
Michael Vitorino
“I think of strategies while I work out at the gym. This tournament gained me entry to the 100k tournament, and I came 32nd, winning $500.”
3rd Place: $350 cash prize
Max Chang
“This was my first online poker tournament. My friends Sahil Amoli and Chris Barker helped train me for the tournament.”
2nd Place: $500 cash prize
Dan Bunce
“I hold the fifth highest shot in the state bowling tournament.”
