Tournaments

2007 World Series of Spades tournament

48 Players gathered for the Ninth Annual World Series of Spades in Atlanta, GA. (October 5 / 6) A great time was had by all, and the grueling format came down to the best of three Finals, which went to a third game. Wilmington, NC was well represented with three players at the last table!

And four former "Elite Spaders" players romped home with $5,000 in cash (for 1st and 2nd Places.) Special Kudos to Charlie B. for a beautifully directed tournament!
