This past weekend my golf association held a charity No Limit Texas Hold 'Em tournament at Spanish Trails Country Club.
I had never played poker before, but like many have watched it endlessly on FSN, ESPN, USA, Bravo... I called a friend who is a professional poker player and asked him for a quick lesson last week.
It must have been a good lesson because out of 49 people in the tournament, I came in 9th. Top 10 won prizes so I got some goodies to take home.
Now you can call it beginner's luck (and you would be right), but I prefer to consider myself a natural. :)
