Uncool Poker Things - A
Scandal and Black Eye for Poker?
Most of you know that one of our most consistent
and longest playing regulars, Jay Jones,
recently won the Charity Poker Tour Challenge
that was devised by another regular John
F. Well, since then we've came to learn
some disturbing information about this event
and something just doesn't sound quite right.
A long story short, the organizer of the
CPT, a person named Brent Burns (or Brent
Hannah, or Brenton D Bruns II - depends
on when you met him I guess) is now claming
that the ATF will shut down his championship
event. On top of that, the grapevine is
telling us that the Grand Prize, that Mercedes
SUV, is actually a used vechile with around
60k miles on it... Not quite what the championship
was devised as. It sounds bad, it looks
bad and I don't know how it is going to
conclude but we'll keep you up to date here
as much as possible. Check the forum for
current info. Read
more here.
Anyway, Congrats to Jay for winning the
challenge laid down by John. We thought
it was a very cool idea and gracious of
John to do, hopefully it will come to a
positive close. We honestly don't know what
to say about this turn of events.
Championship Month:
January is Championship Month. We've confirmed
the tournament date for 2 locations.
Jeffreys will hold their Championship
on Thursday, January 6th at 6:30PM.
Same structure as last year - Top 40 this

as soon as it is confirmed. We've got 500
Piece Sets, 300 Piece Sets, 80 Piece sets
and T's to give away for our top finishers
already as well as some other cool things
this year. Top points leaders will also
get an invite to an exclusive tourney at
the end of the year.
Southern Comfort is holding their Championship
on Saturday the 29th of January
Top 30 in Points qualify for this invite
only event. The Grand Prize for this event
is either a very cool Flat Screen TV or
a Trip for 2 - Details are being finalized.
We've also got Chip Sets and T's for our
top finishers! Top points leaders will also
get an invite to an exclusive tourney at
the end of the year.
Wooden Nickel Championship is TBA

Online Poker
Online poker is different than real poker
at a table with live opponents. Online,
you can't look at your opponent and see
if they are nervous when they bet, you can't
look for tells... But neither can your opponents.
You can stand up and shout when you hit
your miracle card on the river giving you
the nut straight and a sucker is betting
into you! You can swear at the screen when
some idiot sucked out on you by hitting
a runner runner flush on the river... online
you don't have to worry about tells in a
traditional sense... it is a different animal.
Anyone can play and win online poker with
play chips... the chips
are just for play. You click another button
and wah-lah you get $1000 more play chips.
Play all you want, all night long. Its easy,
you win and what the hey, may as well call
an all in bet with T2o, if Doyle can win
with it anyone can right?
Playing poker online with real money
is different than playing with play
money. You have to experince online
poker with real money to
be able to judge for yourself.
If you've wanted to try it out for real,
then take a look.
We've worked a sponsorship for anyone who
has played at one of our live events. You
use our link, go to our sponsors site and
they will give you $20 bucks real money
to start your bankroll with. Yeah it is
not huge, but it is a starting point to
build your bankroll. Place or win a tournament
and you've just doubled, tripled or who
knows what to your bankroll...
If you want to try it, then go to our unique
link and follow the instructions. We
appreciate it.
If you do decide to play online, please
take advantage of our links.
We offer many specials unique only to KAP
visitors and every click helps support KAP.

Well, that about sums up this
weeks shuffle. Remember you can read all
the past
shuffles to get a first hand account
