That's right, Philadelphia!!!

We were there for the 2nd annual International Hearts Tournament

As opposed to last year (big upset winner, "close to the vest" Gordman) this years winner was the odds on favorite, Buster Feldman

Yes! We just returned from the second annual tournament. An exciting fun filled 4 days in Philly including a day at the Jersey shore where the actual play took place. There were official protests of the outcome posted by Mr. Jerry (sore loser) Epstein and his partner in crime (and the worlds worst hearts player) Mr. Sandford Kasner, about the fact that the tournament was somewhat shortened by the unfortunate early departure of Mr. Gordman. However, after due deliberation (by Mr. Feldman) the results were declared official.

As usual there were many official and unofficial social activities, the trip was highlighted by the fact that "Crazy" Shiekman lives in Philly and contributed significantly to the success of the tournament and the drinking and eating  parts of the week-end. Below are some of the captured pictorial moments from the weekend (as usual just click on them to enlarge).
