Funny thing is that speed is of no advantage for a "Poker Run." The last
boat to arrive can still win the pot...there's no need for a turbine powered
boat running at 100mph.



I'm no expert on poker runs but I've heard that the *real* event is
all about finishing first in a thinly disguised race, and that winning
the "pot" is a public relations after thought.



That would not surprise me, Everytime I have seen these guys on the
lakes I have been on they are running pretty fast for conditions. That
is to say they are not the only ones on the lake.
