PRESS RELEASE
April 18, 2011
A San Diego man took home a first place prize of $100,000 at Viejas Casino's
Poker Classic III tournament on Sunday.
"I don't know yet but I'm not going to be playing cards anymore today!"
The Poker Classic III kicked off Saturday morning, featuring hundreds of players
testing their poker skills. It all came down to the final winning hand played
Sunday afternoon by 49 year old Scott H. of San Diego, who was handed a check
for $100,000 after his winning hand came up pocket aces.
Scott, a native of San Diego who hails from the Point Loma area, says he had a
good feeling going into the tournament. "My wife told me, ‘honey, do good' and I
said I was going to win."
Scott says the only plan he and his wife have for the winnings at this point is
to spend some of it on their kids, who he joked needed new shoes. After the
two-day tournament, Scott was asked what he planned to do with his afternoon. "I
don't know yet but I'm not going to be playing cards anymore today!" Scott said.
He added that he was satisfied with just going home and hugging his wife and
kids.
In addition to Scott, another nine players in the tournament took home winnings
ranging from $10,650 to $3,000. Viejas is the only casino in the San Diego area
with a dedicated poker club and this is the third year in a row Viejas Casino
has awarded this generous purse.
Viejas Casino General Manager David Williams said, "We're thrilled for Scott and
his family, and all the other winners in the Poker Classic III. The tournament
created a lot of excitement on the casino floor this weekend, and it will
continue throughout April - with promotions in bingo, slots and table games."
