W.R.G.P.T. ONE Final Standings
W.R.G.P.T. ONE Final Standings
The first WRGPT tournament was hand dealt by Will Hyde. It had 30 players
divided into three tables of 10. Each table played down to three players
who were then combined for the final table.
Will would physically deal out cards then email each player what cards they had. Then
each player would email back to Will their action and Will would send out the action as
it happened to each player.
When a table got down to three players it was finished and had to wait for all other
tables to get down to three players before starting the final table.
What follows is what I could dig up from rec.gambling and a few other sources about
what had many names until it was almost complete when software was written by
Ron Duursma to automate the dealing process partway through the final table.
Final Standings:
1. Steve Jacobs
2. Ken Butler
3. R. Bhrat Rao

Lex Mierop
