The Jewish Community Center on the northwest side of San Antonio held their 3rd annual Texas Hold Em Tournament this past weekend. It was a big turn out with 90 participants all playing for the grand prize of a seat to the World Series of Poker MAIN EVENT, a value of $10,000. After 7 grueling hours of poker play, Mr. Eddie Guerrerro took the prize. Eddie is a Jefferson HS graduate, graduate of MIT and currently employed at AMD. Eddie happens to be a husband to my cousin, Claudette. She says,
Eddie LOVES to play poker he takes this competitive hobby very seriously.
I guess it has paid off. Good Job Eddie! We will root for you in Vegas.
He is scheduled to play next summer (late June/ early July). You can follow his success next year on the worldseriesofpoker.com.
