Gubbas, The Eagle Hotel, and Frogs Hollow Tavern have joined to bring you an incredible promotion.  Players are invited to come out to each of their events to qualify for this great event from Sept 9th – Oct 20th .  In addition to standard TOC qualifying points, the top 20 players from each event will earn Mini-Tournament Qualifying points for that venue.  The top 6 players from each venue will be invited to the Triple Threat Final where the Grand Prize will be $300 Cash! 

In addition to the prizes at the Final, the top point earner throughout the entire qualifying process will win $30 worth of gift certificates for these venues.  Another bonus, the top three point earners at each venue will earn extra chips to use in the Triple Threat Final, and the top point earner from each venue will earn even more!  It pays to earn those points!  Give yourself the best chance to take home the $300 by trying your best to make it deep into each event. 

The end of another Trimester is upon us.  Player rankings are up to date so be sure to get to the website and find out if you have qualified!  Remember, the top 300 players from each Region are invited to the TOC ONLY IF player #300 has 70 points or more.  If player #300 has less than 70 points, then only those players with 70 points or more are invited.

Coming Sunday, September 19th Triumph Brewery in New Hope will be hosting a very special Philadelphia Eagles Tag-Team event.  To celebrate the start of the NFL season and their week #2 game, Triumph and Riverchasers will be creating a Tag-Team event with a twist.

Whether you are a football fan or not, you’ll want to attend this great event for the incredible prizes and this unique experience.  The winning team will also be qualified for our Passport to the Championship Final. 

What makes this event unique?

1)  Participants who attend earn 10 extra chips by wearing any green article of clothing, and 20 bonus chips if it has an Eagles logo.  Face and body painting may be considered for 15 EXTRA bonus chips.
2)  Any Turnover (fumble/interception) that takes place will cause the dealing at the table to go the other way!  Blinds, Dealing, and Action will all go backwards until the next turnover.  The Dealer will remain the same for the first hand of reversed action.
3)  If the Eagles Score, bonus chips will be given to the winner of the previous hand (6 BB’s for a Touchdown, 3 BB’s for a Field Goal).

4)  If the Opposing Team Scores a TD, then the winner of the previous hand must forfeit 2 BB’s to the next pot, prior to dealing.

Riverchasers and Triumph staff will be following the game very closely as it will influence the special features within the tournament. 

Pre-register your team by emailing veronica@riverchasers.com.  Pre-registration is not required but it will guarantee you your seat in what looks like to be a packed house.
