The atmosphere was electrifying! The crowd were buzzing! The chips were... all gone!?!

The Crown Casino came alive for the Corporate Games: Poker Tournament a couple of Fridays ago, and yours truly ended up in the top 100 (ranked 88 when I got eliminated)! Companies from all sorts of industries were fairly represented, and the competitive edge was certainly evident (especially between Telstra and Optus, methinks). The pace was much faster than what you and I would've seen on TV, but the dealers were very helpful in letting us know where the game's at.

I went ALL IN once with a pair of aces. The second time I went ALL IN, my King-Ten got beaten by a King-Jack! :(

'Twas a good warm-up for next year for sure! I would recommend joining the game, even if you're a beginner like me. Thanks to those who dropped by in Melbourne for a visit and the support!
