Flynn Hates Poker
To be fair, it didn’t start out horribly. Flynn & Ollie played at The Poker Oasis on the 7th, Sunday: the game of choice this time was a bounty tournament. The turnout was awesome and a great time was had by all. This was made even better by a 2-way chop for 1st/2nd between Flynn…
