Q'z Lounge - Thursdays
Great fun and a lot of laughs marked the first night of tournament play at Q'z Lounge in Graham. Once the many new players got signed in play got underway. We had numerous players that were new to the league but not new to Texas Hold 'Em. It was very heartening to hear how they liked our format better than the other league's that they had played with and that they had a great time. I know i had a terrific time and will make it a point to return as often as I can. The waitstaff and management are committed to making poker a big event at the Q'z. Players 18 - 20 can also participate at their own table in the restaurant portion of the establishment. The Q'z will be hosted each Thursday by Rebecca Mayse. See you there!  6PM Sign-In

BaddHandz.com
Need a good laugh... then you have to check out the website www.baddhandz.com We've all had them... bad hands, but some individuals have raised the play of poor starting cards to an art form. Get the low down on starting hands with monikers like "The Stinky", "The Roswell", "The Ugly Cousin', "The Jezebel"..... Who should play 'em. when to play 'em, best flops. You can even name your favorite starting hand.... "The Mary Anne" would be appropriate for a King Three.... right Mary Anne? Or... how about "The Homer"... any hand that sucks out at the river to beat Homer Goddard!
 The King James... King Duece... When to play: two drinks past your invincible stage! Who should play the King James: Irish Catholic priests, cheap dates, keg party attendees, anyone who switches to liquid cold medicine after the booze runs out.
If you see someone dressed as one of the characters at BaddHandz.com at a No Fee Texas Holdem tournament and you take 'em out... you'll get a t-shirt with that character on it. The league will also award shirt points throughout the summer for anyone wearing a BaddHandz t-shirt.
