Chips: 868 | | | HORSE Poker Tournament Question and CONTEST A friend of mine is putting on a HORSE poker tournament. I have never heard of this but figured it out to be (ain't I smrt?)...
Holdem
Omaha
Razz
Stud
E?
What is the E for, or is it a HORS tournament?
CONTEST PART... If anyone can tell me, pertaining to the spelling of the word smart above, what TV show and character it is in reference to. The first person to guess correctly I will send them a sample set, 6 chips, of my custom chipcos when they arrive. These are the Tarheel Poker Club chips which can be found here, This only applies if you are not a Duke Fan!
