Whats the best poker hands to have? If you ask Andrew Trapp, a priest from South Carolina, he would say……it’s God’s hands.
The priest wins $100,000 on TV’s game show Million Challenge on the Fox network. There were 10,000 contestants that were entered online for the challenge. Father Trapp beat David Negreanu in the final hand!
The final hand that cinched it: Trapp had a J-8 against Negreanu’s 5-6 preflop. The flop 8-4-2 gave Trap top pair and Negreanu a double gutshot straight draw. Negreanu bet 2,000, after much contemplation Trapp shoves in $19,000. Negreanu makes the call…after seeing Trapp’s hand he says “oops”!!! Negreanu needing a 3 or a 7, watched as the turn a jack and a deuce at the river. Giving the $100,000 match to Trapp.
What will he do with his winnings? What any good priest would do……..donate it to his church’s new building fund.
Trapp has a shot of winning the one million challenge which will air in December.
Do you think it's wrong for a priest to gamble?
