On an unseasonable cold day in Las Vegas FPN players from all over the country packed into the Golden Nugget poker room for their shot at becoming the next FPN National Champions and winning the coveted $10,000 poker package. Altogether a total of 123 people played. With the tournament starting at 10am local time spirits were high and everyone was having a lot of fun. Samantha Chase from Fargo, ND took all the pressure off everyone by being the first player eliminated. For being first out Samantha received a fresh crisp $100 bill. An hour into the tournament Debbi Edwards from Illinois stood up and made the announcement she won her first hand of the tournament. Players in the poker room had a good laugh and applauded Debbi for her first win.
