Online Team Dominate, But It's Not Over Yet Folks...

"Well, that was a crazy game of poker!"

It started off as a challenge, turned into domination and ended with a flipament to rival the best finishes to a poker tournament ever witnessed. It was a great day of poker and one that was as entertaining as it was skillful.

The Online Team put in a huge performance today to open a big points lead going into the second day of play tomorrow.
