Greek Wins Poker Tour Event!

 Jim wins entry into tournament this year

 SAN FRANCISCO, CA  APRIL 28, 2005

Believe it!  Our own Jim "Greek" Mansfield defeated 100 rounders at a sponsored World Poker Tour satellite event in San Francisco this week.  Jim says he played conservative at first, letting the other competition eat away at itself for the early rounds.  Soon enough Jim found himself at the final table, and then in the final two.

He was at a sizeable chip disadvantage but worked over his cocky, over-confident competitor (an exec from Yahoo!), and chopped the sucker down like a tree.  Here's the kicker: the win gets Jim a $10,000 entry in the World Poker Tour this year, along with travel expenses, etc.  Congratulations to Jim!
