Mystery Prizes

So, at the beginning of the season, the council decided there will be 5 mystery awards; prizes given out for players' accomplishments, or misfortune.

Well, they were such a mystery, that we overlooked one! An award was to be given out for the first player who won back to back points games.

Well, back in November, Christine did it! Congratulations Christine!
For her prize, Christine was able to choose between PokerRoom cards, PokerRoom fitted caps, PokerRoom tuques, PokerStars ball caps, and PokerStars T-shirts... she chose the very nice, high quality, PokerRoom cards!

I felt so bad about overlooking the award, that we had a whole ceremony for her. Balloons, noise makers, confetti, cake... the works! Take a look at the event:
