What is
it?-"Get Rev'd up for
CF" is a motorcycle poker run to benefit Cystic Fibrosis.
For the second year in a row this ride takes place locally with
many local participants.
Last year we had over a hundred people and together we raised
$9,000.00.
We have chosen Cystic Fibrosis as our charity to help a local
woman, Kristine Tracey,
find a cure for this life threatening disease.
Who is
behind this?-
Our committee members are:
Ronald Burns, Kristine Tracey, Sean Farrell, Daniel Burns, Cate
Zakens, Chris Zakens,
Stephen Deitz, Eric Burns and Megan Tracey.
Where
does the money go? - All proceeds
go directly to the Cystic Fibrosis
Northeastern NY Chapter. We have an account set up at the Ravena
Branch of the
National Bank of Coxsackie under the name RU4CF.
Who can
participate? - Anyone!!! If you
have a road bike you can do the poker run
through the gorgeous Catskill Mountains and come back to
Joralemon Park for a beef and
clam roast. If you have an ATV, they are doing a separate ride
through Coeymans Hollow.
And, if you just have your own two feet, come join us for food,
drink and a great band-
Wylder, "The rock & roll party band!!!"!
Here are some shots of last years' run along with some from other Poker Runs!!
What is A Poker Run? |
A Poker
Run is an organized
motorcycle event where riders travel over a prescribed
course and at |
We use the standard
5 card hand on all our rides. All cards in poker are
ranked, or valued,
in the following order. From lowest to highest in each suite: 2,
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack,
Queen, King and Ace. I have listed the lowest hand to
the highest hand below.
High Card: In a poker hand
with no winning combinations of cards, the high card wins.
That
card is determined by the ranking above.
One Pair: Two cards of the
same value with three extra cards that do not combine in
any
desirable way.
Two Pair: Two pairs of cards
with the same value each pair having a different value.
One
extra card is present.
Three of a Kind: Three cards of the
same value with the remaining two cards not
combining
in any desirable way.
Straight: Five cards of sequential value and differing "suits"(spades, clubs, hearts or diamonds).
Flush: Five cards of the same suit that are not all sequential.
Full House: Three cards of one
value, and two cards of another value,
sometimes
called a "full boat".
Four of a Kind: Four cards of the same value with one extra card present.
Straight Flush: Five sequential cards of the same suit. ·
Royal Flush: A Straight Flush
that consists of the five highest value cards, 10, Jack,
Queen,
King and Ace.
Each level of value
beats all levels below it. For instance, even the lowest Three of
a
Kind (Twos) will beat the highest Two Pair (Aces and Kings). If
two players have the
same type of hand, the player with the higher value cards wins
the hand. For instance,
the player with three Jacks beats the player with three Eights.
Extra cards only matter
if two players have otherwise identical hands. For instance, if
two players each have
Two Pair consisting of Tens and Fours, the player with the higher
value extra card wins the hand..
