High Roller Run had 40 hands $500 each, paid out $14,000 to high hand and $6,000 low hand. Still gave over $10,000 to the Make A Wish Foundation.

Maybe we do math different in Texas?
where did the extra 10K come from??

You must, cuz yours doesnt add up.

On top of the grand prize the winner was supposed to choose a charity of his choice and the event would forward them 50k.

The event was at a 5 star casino with the best rooms in the building etc etc.
Dont remind me that I paid 10k to go to a poker run

The extra 10K was from donations and auction items. Any of the Poker Runs America runs are first class! Great group of people and ALOT of fun!

I know. The event I'm describing was a PRA run.

The Texoma Run was put on by the Texas Fun Run Club. Legend Marine Group had nothing to do with it...nor did Highport Marina. However, they did participate.

someone may need to clarify for me though.

The biggest Poker Run payout for an event I have been in was $ 100,000.00 cash.

PRA High Stakes Run Ottawa Ontario , 4 years ago.

I had three 9s with one card left to be turned over.

David Luciani pulled a Straight.

No second prize.

PR entry fee......10K
