The Helms, from Bullard, Texas, collected $11,849 for 1st Place. Explaining their victory, Clarence said, 'We know each other pretty good.'
The 'Scotty Nguyen Challenge', May 17 - 31, is expected to attract record-breaking numbers of players. 'We've filled all the rooms at our four properties and we're putting people up in nearby Tulsa hotels,' reports Director of Table Games, Rick O' Connell.
