Every season, the Atlanta Poker Club officially ends with the grand championship. This is made up of people who have accumulated enough points or have met the other qualifications required to play.

Season 11 Grand Champion

Jim Burns

This season we had 127 people qualify for the tournament and the 85 players that showed up to play were all after the title and the coveted silver rectangular card protector that is synonymus with being the grand champion.

The Grand Championship was held at Downriggers in Winder. They set up a buffett and kept food and drinks coming for all the players. Thank you for being such great hosts.

The Atlanta Poker Club’s own Kelly Hannon was the TD for the day, and did a remarkable job. Her TD experience ensured a well run tourney and that a good time could be had by all. Thank you Kelly! I also want to thank all the dealers ( Bill, Clint, Getty, Jennifer, Nathan, Travis and Troy ) who helped out as well. Because of you the players can really concentrate and enjoy their game.

The play was pretty good all around and the top 5 at the final table consisted of some great players from the APC. Dion Knudston, Daniel Petty, Bruce Yates and Jeremiah Harwell. But in the end Jim Burns, was the last man standing. He showed he had the cards and the patience to survive the tough crowd on this day.

Thanks to all the dealers, the waitstaff, and the players. Everbody coming together like this is what The Atlanta Poker Club is all about.
