June 25 2004
The Oregon Poker Tour traveled back to the house of Co-founder Luke Shortridge for another night of Texas Hold 'em Poker. Last week, the two founders of the OPT reasserted their dominance on the OPT leaderboard. Was it now Cowan's turn to reestablish his winning ways in the OPT? Would Christina Zimmerman, the winner of the Spring Break Championship back in March, step up and take her second poker victory? Or might Drew Wood, winner of two games in his first three weeks back in the OPT, make another move towards the top of the leaderboard. Or, would someone else take the game? Sixteen players gathered around the poker tables, creating a total prize pool of $39.00. Who would claim victory this night?

Despite having two wisdom teeth removed in the morning, no one was able to keep Dugan from winning his second game in a row.
The second game of the night also had sixteen players, once again creating a total prize pot of $39.00. Who would grind it out and take the last game for the month of June.
