And again, this year's main event was our round of "Screw Your Neighbor". We had to change the name of the game for the kids' sake, calling it, "Be Mean to your Neighbor". 
There were 13 people playing with 5 $1 chips. Plus, each person can Buy Back in one time for another $5 for 1 chip. Last person standing takes all the winnings AND the prize that the last year's winner contributed. Last year ,Yo won again, but she had brought an iPod Shuffle as the prize, which went to David for 2nd place.
So to do the math, that's a $130 pot plus a bonus prize. Lauryn started keeping tabs on who was still in the game and crossing off who was out. 
After a couple of hours and all the buybacks falling to the wayside, two remained. Lil and Darryl. David started taking side bets. Even money on Darryl and 2-1 for Lil.After a tense last hand where they were both tied, they had to go for a final last hand. Both ended up with 7's until Darryl pulled a final card and beat Lil with a 10. Darryl walked away with a big pot and the bonus prize of an iPod Nano engraved with "SYN Champ 2007".
Congrats Darryl!
