This highly anticipated annual event, held at the beautiful Lake Bruin in St. Joseph, LA, promises an afternoon of excitement, laughter, and the chance to win fantastic prizes while supporting a worthy cause—the students at Tensas Academy.
What's the Deal?
The Lake Bruin Poker Run is a unique event where participants venture out onto Lake Bruin to visit various themed piers, draw cards for their poker hands, and ultimately compete for incredible prizes. The first-place winner will walk away with a grand prize of $1,000, while the second and third-place winners will receive $500 and $250, respectively. But it's not just about the prizes—the entire day is filled with fun activities, camaraderie, and breathtaking views of the lake.
One of the unique aspects of the Lake Bruin Poker Run is the creativity displayed at each Poker Pier. Every pier is adorned with a distinctive theme, creating a vibrant atmosphere that adds to the overall enjoyment of the event. Take a leisurely stroll along the piers, interact with your Lake Bruin neighbors, and soak up the wonderful community spirit that thrives in this remarkable setting.
How to Participate
To join in the excitement, you only need a Poker Run Scorecard, which you can purchase for $60.00 at select locations or online. You can buy one scorecard per boat or even get one for each person on board. Remember, the more scorecards you have, the greater your chances of winning! If circumstances prevent you from attending, you can still play by purchasing a scorecard online and selecting the option for it to be played on your behalf.
To make it convenient for everyone, scorecards and t-shirts pre-purchased online can be picked up in Downtown St. Joseph, right in front of Maria's, on Friday, June 16th, between 5:30 and 7:30 P.M. Additional scorecards can also be purchased during this time, ensuring that everyone has ample opportunities to participate.
The Adventure Begins

With five themed piers spread across the lake, you'll have the opportunity to visit each one at your own pace. Take your time, soak in the atmosphere, and enjoy the company of your fellow lake enthusiasts. The event is designed to accommodate everyone. Families are welcome, and this is the perfect chance to introduce younger ones to the joys of being out on the water.
As you visit each pier, be sure to draw a card for your poker hand. Even if you're not a seasoned poker player, don't worry! This event is more about luck and having a great time than skill. So, embrace the excitement, feel the wind in your hair, and collect your cards.
