<strong>June</strong> 3, <strong>2015</strong> <strong>Palisades</strong> <strong>News</strong> Page 13Rotary Is All inFor the KidsBy SUE PASCOEEditorThe bidding was fast and furious andthe bluffing top-notch as the secondannual Rotary Texas Hold ‘Em pok -er tournament for charity was held May 9in Janes Hall at the Pacific <strong>Palisades</strong> PresbyterianChurch.Sixty-five players started with $200 inchips and waited for Lady Luck to givethem two “good” cards in the pocket. TheDealer Dolls then laid out five additionalcards, as players tried for three-of-a-kind,a full house, a straight and a flush. As peoplelost, the seven tables were condenseduntil only the skilled—or maybe lucky—were left at the championship table.Taking first was Merv Dunn ($2,000),who won the tournament final hand witha pair of sevens. Second went to Dave Dealy($1,000), third Carole Raskin ($900), fourthBill Snyder ($700) and fifth Layth Carlson($400). Two organizations, the <strong>Palisades</strong>-Malibu YMCA and Pacific <strong>Palisades</strong> RotaryClub Foundation, each received $3,500.Individual players kept their winnings.“From a fellowship and financial standpoint,this is really a good event,” said RotarianPerry Akins. His daughter Natalie,who graduated from <strong>Palisades</strong> High Schooland now lives and works in Kansas City,played in the tournament.“The kids and the Rotary club are thewinner,” said member Stockton Gaines.Entry fees included drinks and dinner fromVittoro’s Ristorante on Marquez Avenue.Last year’s winner and the person responsiblefor organizing the tournament,Peter Crosby, was out early this year. “Ionly won one hand the entire night, I didn’thave the pocket cards. I watched Mervin one hand where he drew ‘pocket rockets’(a pair of aces).”Crosby admitted he re-bought twice,making his loss for the night $600—but ashe explained, “It all goes to charity and it’sall tax-deductible.” Take that, Las Vegas!Tournament sponsors included MarieTran (Mac & PC computer services), Dr.Damon Raskin, W.I. Simonson MercedesBenz, Brett Bjornson (estate planning services),Cindy and Bill Simon, WestsideRentals, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage(Holly Davis, Anne Russell and FranFlanagan) and an anonymous Rotarian.Last year’s winner Peter Crosby hoped the Dealer Dolls (dealerdolls.com) would bringhim luck.
