Excuse me? We’ve all heard that gambling is a sin. It seems to be the accepted norm amongst religious communities. So how did this priest land up getting involved in the poker world
Earlier this year, Reverend Trap of Myrtle Beach Parish, St Michaels’s Church entered a poker tournament with the hope that he would win the $5 million cash prize to help his church. The good reverend aimed to donate all his winnings to the church to make it nice and shiny and for his congregation to enjoy. Apparently, the Reverend asked permission in the church before embarking on the drive for the money, and was actually encouraged by his congregation to go ahead and vie for an in the money win. He got permission from his bishop. He said he’d never go ahead with it followed through without it. The priest played with his clerical collar on during his game which probably made the other players quite nervous. Good tactile move. Whilst not winning the $5 million dollar prize, he had to set for a not so measly $100,000 prize. Congratulations to him! Attached here is his audition tape for the show.
