Battle for the Light Saber (and Stein)

In addition to it being a an official stein game, the coveted Darth Vader Light Saber was also up for grabs. One big game – winner takes all. Truly, a nerd’s bounty here.

Alex is in town for a few days, and decided to join us for the match. Tonight was his first time ever playing Holdem (and he did very well early on, winning one of the biggest hands in the first half).

Group shot – everyone getting a feel for the light saber, just before the cards get dealt out.

And Kashif! He’s the big winner. The first ever successful defense of the LORD AND MASTER STEIN™, to say nothing of winning the kickin’ light saber. Who would have guessed that, back in early January… we had a strong holdem player in our midst? Awesome!
