I know Dog Days is putting one together since Fand L's is'nt having their

Dog Days is going to be HQ for the MWBP Poker Run July 11-12.

Does anyone know if they are planning the June Poker Run?

Sent two emails and no return emails at all. Not a good sign

Thats to bad. The F&L Poker run was a fun one :(. It kind of kicked off the start off summer at the LOTO.

Anybody tried calling?

It's offical they are NOT having a run, they said mostly because of the "midwest boat party" run and not wanting to compete with them along with oss, the shoot-out ect. mark it off your calanders....BZ

Howd you find that out?

NOW WHAT !!!!!!????

Spoke with the manager at new WobblyBoots, Mark will be announcing next week details on the poker run

WTF, we still going down in June or what??? Inquiring minds would like to know!:D

were all still in. Lil den, Megan, BBobb are all here at the house and willing to still go down

how would one poker run compete with the MWBP when most on the boaters that ran the F&L's run are MWBP members.

Thats just sound stupid when the whole purpose of a poker/fun run is to raise money for a good cause. The people that run in the events just want another reason to take a long weekend off of work and go to the lake.

Just talked with my crew thats riding with me were still in for sure. What about that harbor hop in May or something?

I'd call BS on that reasoning :Whatever:

There were only about a dozen mwbp boats running in the F & L Poker Run and the F & L run is normally 6 weeks before when the MWBP official poker run is scheduled. MWBP has done several informal group lunch runs. The new Poker Run is just making it more official.

That is what i was getting at. :D

Just for the record, we decided to have the MWBP in July specifically in order to NOT compete with the F&L Run. Last I talked to him, the owner of F&L's was still in Florida, but he said nothing about his run or ours, and to be honest, I'm pretty sure ours had nothing to do with their decision not to hold the run.

Just my .02

I am just passing along what my buddy said after he spoke with him on the phone.. I hope my buddy is wrong I would like to do both runs.

JUNE 7th..yes

Sorry, didn't mean to imply you had a bad source, and as it turns out, you have a pretty good source. I spoke with Dan today (owner of F&L's) and indeed, he is not doing the poker run this year.

It was not specifically because of the MWBP Poker Run, but with all of the other runs at the lake this year, he was afraid people wouldn't do that many poker runs, and he knows how much work it takes to put one on.

I have a feeling if people let him know that they miss his run, and would like him to do it next year, he may reconsider in the future. I am disappointed he's not doing it, its always been my favorite poker run at the lake.

I know I will miss the run we did it for the 1st time last year, even though we blew a drive and did not finish we had a great time at the party. I was looking forward to doing the whole run this year!!!!! BZ

That sucks, but we sold the lucky boat anyway so we'd probably be out of the money. Was a good run, we will miss it.

What,,, didnt you enjoy the three hour idle !!!???

Cheryl and I kept you company while Jeff slept !!!

Oh,,, Cheryl says you still owe her a poker run !!!!!:evilb:

no

no beer-too long of a ride

Boyne Thunder???

What the hay is wrong with you guys. Never and I mean never leave the dock without a full cooler. Got to be prepared for emergencies.

I was looking forward to doing Frankie and Louies but I guess that will not happen.
