Playing poker in the bay

Slowly the line of kayaks along the beach began to grow as the water warmed up. Their pilots stretched out or drank from cups of coffee clutched tightly in their hands as they got ready to hit the cool and choppy waters of Onset Bay Saturday morning.

More than 30 people were readying themselves for the Third Annual Kayak Poker Run, a very unusual event that takes advantage of the village s best natural resource to help support the Onset Bay Association.

It just started as the OBA asking to do a fundraiser. Somebody came up and asked how to do this, and we put it together and gave it a try, Patrick McBund, the event organizer, said.

Whatever it was, it wasn t a race. Kayakers slipped casually into their boats and took their time shuttling back and forth over the water in search for a set of cards and a chance for a $430 prize. The point wasn t to come back to shore first, but to come back with the best poker hand, hitting each station on the water and on land, all while taking in the scenery around the bay.





An inflatable monkey stood up on one kayak in the best approximation of Washington s pose as he crossed the Delaware as one could hope for in a polyethylene primate. A few bilge pumps were used as impromptu squirt guns before McBund explained what was about to happen and the kayaks slipped into the water.

Everyone would receive one card to start. They would pick up another three on the water. The last card would be at the registration table, where the kayakers would also be able to buy a few more chances at building just the right hand for the win. There would be no cheating, a term left ambiguous, and no card swapping.

This was a great year, he said. I don t know how many people came, but there were 31 registered when I last check. That s our biggest turnout yet.

By the end of the event, most of the participants took advantage of the opportunity to buy new cards rather than live with the hands they were dealt. In spite of the flurry of activity around that last pile of cards, it would all come down to three kayakers with two pair.

Cathy Knapp, an Indiana resident, won with nines and queens. Her enthusiasm over her win was infectious as she shouted and hopped around. Both she and a New Jersey resident also received token keychains for being the farthest from home at the event.

Other prizes, awarded partly on whimsy, included gift certificates and kayaking lessons. Proceeds from the event went to benefit the Onset Bay Association to help support a variety of events throughout the summer.
