CHARITABLE FOUNDATION (AAMCF)

Texas Hold'em Shamrock Shimmy Round Up

Friday, March 17, 2006

Chicago, Hyatt Regency

In 2005, the AAMCF held the first ever Texas Hold'em Round Up! The game certainly had its emotional moments, but in the end it was a friendly charitable game. Players began to ask - when's the next one? We answered their call. In 2006 the AAMCF brought to its players the Texas Hold'em Shamrock Shimmy. Held in conjunction to the ASI show, the tournament itself was held on St. Patrick's Day in Chicago! It doesn't get any better than that.
