Luxx Limo comes through for the American Cancer Society!

Luxx Limo and its friends helped raise over $5,000 today to benefit the American Cancer Society. John Rinehart, who is CFO of the Kings organized and hosted a charity poker tournament. All proceeds will go to Breast Cancer Survivors at Mercy General Hospital.

Long time Luxx Limo blog commentator Jean Jordan finished 8th, Bruce Erman who plays in our monthly game and is Chief of Staff at Mercy finished 5th. Bryon Bayer who is featured in the Buffett Concert pictures to the right finished third, and yours truly took second after suffering a bad beat to runner, runner 7s while heads up.

In addition to dominating the final table, Luxx Limo also donated part of the grand prize which was roundtrip transportation to a dinner for 10 prepared by Christophe Cornet, Executive Chief to the Maloofs. A big thank you also goes out to Davin Anderson who ran the tournament, and also to Morton's for furnishing food and our lovely bartender, Elyce.
