Steve:

Thanks for being my biggest supporter!

The winners are announced at the opening banquet. I missed the banquet the year I won with my chip design. I think I was being punished for missing the ceremonies, as I never got paid :-(

I had no idea I even won, and wondered why Nate came up to me and said he really liked my chip design. Joe Shaw thanked me for entering, and I thought "Boy I wonder what the winning chip looks like!" Then the last day of the show I was looking at the club table and there it was, all made up! I was very excited!

It was a lot of fun and hope to enter again next year!
