This year we put a twist on the Photo Scavenger Hunt and changed it to a group pub craw Photo Poker Run. 5 locations, 5 cards, winner take all. It all started with lunch at El Capitan to get a good base and maybe a taste of their good margs before we posed for our first card photo. Here\u2019s how it\u2019s should work. Each person gets a card and signs their name on it so there\u2019s NO card swapping to improve their final hand. (wishful thinking).!!<\/p>\n

Card #1 (El Capitan) The crew looking good. Some friends plan on joining along the way. Lightweights I guess.<\/p>\n

Card #2 (Shrimp fishermen, Malecon Old Port Penasco)<\/p>\n

This was the only dry stop. One of our favorite family Helados (ice cream) vendors took the pic and we enjoyed cool treats from their cart after the pic.<\/p>\n

Location 3 looked to be big trouble. Wrecked at Jen\u2019s Joint was the location for the first ever Paper Airplane flight competition while Jen & Leo keep everybody’s thirst quenched.<\/p>\n

Lots of interesting designs, some flew well and some fell like rocks. We all need more research for next year. Thanks to Mike Clark for this Fun competition idea.<\/p>\n

Moving closer to home, card #4 is at the Big Wrecked at the Reef on Sandy Beach. We\u2019re picking up more friends along the way. We\u2019re also getting rumors that there might be some cheating going on as some poker hands seem to be developing suspiciously strong. \"Smile\"<\/p>\n

Final card home at Cholla Bay\u2019s JJ\u2019s Cantina. Now with 5 cards there seems to be some amazingly good poker hands surfacing.<\/p>\n

Card #5 (JJ\u2019s Cantina, Cholla Bay)  Everybody\u2019s bragging about their winning hand.<\/p>\n

The organizing committee is now aware of out right shady card swapping so we delayed playing out the poker hand until sunset at the Brit\u2019s to decide how to resolve this out of control situation. <\/p>\n

Heather presenting results at the Brit\u2019s<\/p>\n

Heather & Brian sorted through all the submitted hands. We decided to submit so each hand could  be inspected for tampering. They had the following comments\u2026<\/p>\n

Best legit hand \u2013 3 kings Larry & LaDonna<\/p>\n

Most tampered hand – La Diabla (Gill) <\/p>\n

Biggest Cheaters \u2013 Diego, Tamara, Cynthia & Annie (everybody’s cards in their hand)<\/p>\n

Honorable Mention \u2013 2 pair\/full house \u2013 Carol<\/p>\n

Honorable Mention \u2013 Ms. Wendt with only 4 cards. 1 blow away<\/p>\n

And due all the abnormalities the organizing committee decided to declare the winning hand the lowest scoring hand.<\/p>\n

Drum roll\u2026\u2026.. and the winner was\u2026<\/p>\n

Frankie McCulley winning nothing except for the pleasure of the game.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Brian & Heather for their efforts in reviewing hands and determining the winner.<\/p>\n

Next year we hope to refine the game and keep one step ahead of temptation.<\/p>\n

Huge Big Fun<\/p>\n

Until the next Update<\/p>\n
