Thank you to all those that came out to the Poker knight at the Elite Cigar Cafe in Addison this past month. Card sharks traveled from near and far to compete in the tournament; however, only one could walk away as the victor. It just goes to show you gotta know when to Hold Em', know when to Fold Em'...when Gene Perez walks up to the Poker Table.
