And not just any royal flush, but a flop em dead, ultimate royal in spades. And it was all-in preflop with K K against A K/. Imagine getting it in with two kings and the flop leaves you stone dead. Ouch! Some unlucky player has nothing but a terrible bad beat story to show for their entry in todays Valuetown™ event.

Roland 'Scoop Scoop' Jackson, from Houston, Texas, has been playing poker for 15 years. His journey into the game began when his children gifted him an Xbox as a joke. He played a poker game on the console, and thought he was a real shark until he discovered that he was playing on the amateur setting.

Despite a rocky start in live games, Scoop Scoop has achieved notable success, including turning $500 into $25,000 twice in local cash games. His nickname, "Scoop Scoop," reflects his knack for winning big pots. Outside of poker, he works as a specialist in negotiations and problem solving.

Scoop Scoop was the first to claim the $2,000 double bag bonus in our Valuetown™ event here at Texas Card House in Houston. Jackson bagged a nice 600k stack in an early flight and came back hunting the bonus. He managed to squeak in with one big blind last night in Flight 1E to claim the bonus and will be back to shoot for more of that tasty bonus money.

Cyra Crouch, hailing from Houston, Texas, has been playing poker for two years. She discovered her passion for the game through live games, which also introduced her to the vibrant poker community here in Houston. Her most significant result to date is a $1,400 win in a bomb pot in a cash game, but she's looking for a big score in the Valuetown™ event here at Texas Card House this week.

Outside of poker, Cyra works as a mental health therapist. Her husband also plays, though she is clearly the shark in the family. Good luck today Cyra!

Day 1D registration is over, with 1E just getting started in level 2. We had a monster field of 146 entries in 1D, so we will have 9 players advance to day two, with 19 total getting paid. Players who cash in the event but do not advance to day two can play again, but do not qualify for the double bag bonus. Players who advance to day two can play again and they get $2,000 for every time they bag after the first, with the biggest stack advancing to day two.

We had 98 entries in Flight 1C, which gave us 13 players in the money and 6 players advancing to day two, including Anthony Mender bagging a monster stack of over a million chips. No doubt some of these players will be back to play another flight and take a shot at the $2,000 double bag bonus.

We have 9 more flights to go, with day two starting at 4pm on Monday, May 11th.

Registration is now closed for Day 1C, and open for Day 1D. Day 1C drew 98 players with 7 advancing to day two and positions 8-13 getting some cash for their trouble as they bust out today. The whole field for the morning flight is now in the money.

Registration for Day 1D will be open until approximately 8:50pm and Day 1E starts at 9pm. You can play tournaments all day at TCH! Value Town!
