The month of April had only just begun as thirteen poker players joined together at the house of Emily Bean in Sylvania, OH for some Oregon Poker Tour action. Many players were looking for their first win in a long time, while others were looking for their first win ever. With the prize pot totalling over $30, who would take the first victory of the night?
