Playing for boards in las vegas

I shipped 4 Erhan boards to Las Vegas. 3 were special made with the Vegas and USOpen logo and one standard.

One board sold outright and the other three I played people challenge matches for the boards. One of the three lost the challenge and ended up paying the full price of the board, one beat me in the first match and got a $550 board for $350, and one was about to win but left me a double shot that would make me a favorite if I hit and we settled for $400.

So I lost a few bucks on the deal, but it was fun, three people now have fantastic boards that they love, and more people got exposed to these fine Erhan boards. And I love the action!

Of course this wa all done with Howard's permission and I always have the TD's permission and give him a piece whether I make a profit or not.

I will have one or two boards in Atlanta next week and will do the same if anyone is interested.
