Poker Group

Group Head: Bill Langham

I am Bill Langham, long-time Rye resident and something of a poker advocate. For many years I have enjoyed playing poker with friends and for over twenty years now, hosting a tournament to support the Boy Scouts (now Scouting America) in the local Greater Hudson Council. Poker has provided many friendships, camaraderie, a chance to test ones skills and sharpness of mind plus the occasional hat.

We will plan to play poker once or twice a month. These might be Dealer Choice variations of 7-card stud or Omaha 8 or better. Stakes to be determined but generally friendly where an evening of cards might cost the same as a dinner at a steakhouse. A winning evening might provide the funds for your own dinner at a steakhouse.

Alternately a monthly Hold’em Tournament with $50 buy-in, a single re-buy also for $50 and a $50 add-on after the first hour. Ten percent of the buy-ins could be donated to Tuesdays at 10 to support the program.
