VIP Casino's Caribbean Stud tournament finished tonight, and it ended up as a battle between three of our regulars here.
With only minutes to go, Walt was in the lead, Gayle was in second, and I was gaining ground. On nearly the last hand, I made an ante bet of over $300, calculated to move into second place if I won with a pair. I picked up three queens instead and vaulted into first place.
Walt had a good shot at catching me as the clock ticked to the finish. He had a $1000 ante bet and was dealt two pair. However, when the dealer didn't open, I held on to the lead for a $1000 win. Walt picked up $500, and Gayle grabbed $100 for third place.
Nice 1-2-3.
