I want to thank all the players in the C.S.O.P. for making it a great success. What started out in 2007 as a way for about 10 friends and family members to start learning and playing Texas Hold'em and has grown into more than I would have ever imagined. By the end of 2007 we even had a championship game that a friend, Clay had won. During the 2008 season our little game had grown to many more players with higher goals set for a new points system & a better championship game. Along the way I have been fortunate to meet some really good people. We are lucky to have such a good group of people and that everyone gets along. We are ruthless to one another, but it is all for fun, nothing is to be taken seriously. This is a friendly game amongst friends. Along the way through the 2008 season, I tweaked a few things for the championship game. I found myself in a hard place because, well, because I screwed up. I had about a month to figure my mess out, which I called for everyone's input. Misery loves company. I took and crammed them into one, well sort of. But it worked, for the most part. Once we figured out the last little hitches, the championship was on. The 2008 championship game was a hit. It had everything you could ever ask for. It had a little bit of drama, tension, a little talking smack, a whole lot of laughing, and a big finish. The winner was T. Morgan, not any kin to the "Captain". He was one of 2 players lucky to be in the championship by a default. At one time he was on the ropes, dazed and confused. Wait, that's how he is anyway. Just kidding. But some how he fought back form the least amount of chips and won the championship. The championship payed all 10 players at the table and besides the most money going to the winner, he also got a championship bracelet. My hat is off to you, my friend Mr Morgan. Thanks for a great season lots of memories.
