Nebraska Championship in North Platte
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!! An early fall snowfall blanketed the North Platte area, making this championship a memorable one. Fortunately, a lot of players came in the night before to take advantage of the warm-up tourney where well over $200 in cash was given away.
79 players from Nebraska qualified for this regional championship and the overall winner, Dave Schuett, a local player from the Touchdown Club, earned himself a $2,000 package to play in the televised Heartland Poker Tour Red Rock Casino main event, airfare, and 4 nights at the beautiful Red Rock casino this January. Congratulations Dave! (**Photo gallery updated**)




On Saturday, September 26th, the next HPT Red Rock seat was awarded at the Wisconsin State Championship held at the Doll House in Hammond, WI. Forty-one players were all wishing they were going to be the next to win this awesome package to Las Vegas!
