Once again the kids were the big winners at the Third Annual Lucky Chances Texas Hold'em Benefit Poker Tournament benefiting BBBSBA, held January 24, 2009 at Lucky Chances Casino in Colma.
Participants included past tournament winners, BBBSBA board members, and current Big Brothers and Big Sisters (without their Littles in tow, of course).
Despite the difficult economic environment the tournament grossed over $15,000 for BBBSBA, and many of the winners, including tournament champion Marc Cimmet (pictured at left) donated some or all of their winnings back to the organization.
Many thanks again to Lucky Chances Casino in Colma for their kind donation of the time and resources that made this event a success.
