Using chips, players vie for prizes and can earn cumulative points towards participation in The Station Pub’s quarterly Tournament of Champions.
There is no charge to play and anyone over the age of 21 can participate. Play starts at 7:30 p.m. every Wednesday, and participants can register at the bar. Tournament organizers are on hand to answer questions about game rules and etiquette.
It’s a great way to learn the game, hone your poker skills and meet new people.
Texas Hold 'em first caught the public eye in 1998 with the movie “Rounders” starring Matt Damon and Edward Norton. It was the main game played during the movie.
In 2003, Texas Hold 'em exploded in popularity as a spectator sport in the United States, in part due to ESPN’s coverage of the World Series of Poker that featured the unexpected victory of Internet player Chris Moneymaker (his real name), an amateur player who gained admission to the tournament by winning a series of online tournaments. Two additional Hold 'em series debuted in 2003: the “World Poker Tour” and "Celebrity Poker Showdown”.
Located in the historic Lambertville Station, The Station Pub is Lambertville’s premier destination for lively spirits, casual dining and the best entertainment. In addition to Texas Hold ‘em on Wednesdays, the Station Pub holds Trivia Night every Tuesday, Local Singer/Songwriter Night on Thursdays and live music on Fridays and Saturdays.
The Station Pub is also a favorite after-work oasis and welcome retreat after a full day of antique hunting and sightseeing during weekend getaways.
