Lake Bruin Poker Run
Join us for the 10th annual Lake Bruin Poker Run benefitting Tensas Academy.
This years event will be held on Saturday, June 15, 2019, from 4:00PM to 7:00PM at Lake Bruin in St. Joseph, LA.
Participants can win Up To $500.00 while having fun on Lake Bruin. There are also extra prizes in addition to the cash prizes.
Each Poker Pier is decorated with a unique theme. Take time to visit with your Lake Neighbors and enjoy the day on Lake Bruin.
In addition, we will be having a pier decorating contest this year. Please take the time to vote for your favorite themed pier this year! More information will later be available as to how to vote!
You can purchase your Poker Run Scorecard for $60.00 at following locations:
There is no limit on the number of scorecards you may purchase.
The more you buy, the better your chances are to win!
The day of the Poker Run, gather your team, plan your route and head out on Lake Bruin to the designated locations where you will find a variety of themed piers, food, and drinks!
Then travel to all 7 Poker Run Piers (in any order) and draw your card for your poker hand and try our new Black Jack pier this year. This event is as family friendly as you want it to be. Come by boat (or even car if you like.) Maybe you will be in the boat that likes to take their time and visit on the lake while playing the game, that is why you have plenty of time to play!
IMPORTANT:
Last year we included a 6th pier as a Wild Card pier. You were able to pick a card at your last pier and choose if you wanted to drop a card from your current hand and replace with the Wild Card. We will continue with the Wild Card this year.
NEW in 2019:
The plan is to add a 7th pier this year as an additional, but optional pier. It will host a Black Jack style game. Get your aim ready and that throwing arm warmed up! This will be a dart game (with magnetic darts). You will have 3 chances to hit 21 and your name will go into a drawing for a separate prize from the regular Poker Run winners. If you bust or don't make 21 you can either walk away or try your luck again. This will be an additional $15 per play. This is separate from your Scorecard and will paid at the pier. Please know this is optional, but we hope you visit this pier and try your luck.
Once you have all of your cards, you will turn your scorecard in at the last pier you visit then head to Netterville’s landing for the Captain’s party which starts at 7:00. There will be live music, food and drinks and the winner will be announced! You do not have to be present to win, but you don’t want to miss out on this annual party on the lake that benefits a good cause. If you can't be there in person but still want to play, simply purchase a scorecard online and select the option for it will be played on your behalf.
Cards purchased online can be mailed to you (if purchased at least one week in advance) or picked up in person at the locations listed above. Simply show your receipt from online purchase.
