Being that I will be going to the MLB Home Run Derby (and All-Star game) this year, what better way to make it even more fun then by betting on it.

There are 8 total participants in the HR Derby (yet to be announced)

The first 7 to reply here that they are in will be in the pool along with me. The buy in is a CBID friendly fiver for a total of 40 smokes.

Once the participants are announced I will pull the names out of a hat and assign them to the 8 of us.

The person with the winner will get 30 smokes and the runner up will get 10 smokes.

OK so who is in???

If we get enough interest we can have multiple pools run at the same time.

I will post them here....

Group 1

Jeremy is correct and I vouch for the noob as well. I have played poker like 6-7 times now and have not finished outside of the bottom 3 and this guy wins it all his 1st freaking time 🤐 🤐 🤐
