I took some time off from airplane building for my other hobby.....Poker Tournaments. I played World Poker Tour's Southern Poker Championship in Biloxi. Won 5th place...paid $5000.
Then went to Tunica and played in the World Series of Poker circuit event. 1132 players....came in 46. Paid about $1000.
I was wearing my lucky Vans Aircraft cap in both wins. I offered Van's the option of sponsoring me in the World Series in Vegas this year. PokerStars.Net paid the $10,000 entry last summer.....but I had to wear THEIR hat. Would much rather advertise for Van's on national TV.
