Pauline Hopkins - Jackson Rancheria

SCA Gaming is pleased to announce that Pauline Hopkins, Promotions Coordinator for Jackson Rancheria, is our Gridiron Pick’Em Football Contest regular season winner and earns $1,000 for her efforts!

Pauline who has been with Jackson Rancheria for six years, revealed her successful handicapping strategy this way, “ I bet on the Chargers five times and they only let me down twice!” An admitted football fanatic, Pauline also did her research. Each week prior to picking her teams against the spread, she would watch ESPN for stats on who would be out, coaching changes, anything that would make a difference in the games.

In addition to her duties at Jackson Rancheria, Pauline is a volunteer firefighter for Jackson Valley. She took some ribbing from her fellow firefighters when she entered the contest. By week three, they were asking for her advice.

What will Pauline do with her $1,000? As the mother of four children puts it, “My kids have decided we need a new big screen TV. They might just get it!”

As a weekly winner, Pauline qualifies for the Playoff Bonus Contest where she has the chance to win the top prize of $100,000!

Congratulations Pauline from all of us at SCA Gaming!

Playing the Right Cards in the Insurance Game

Bob Hamman, a 12-time world bridge champ, has taken advantage of his competitive decision-making skills to start SCA Promotions, a unique prize-indemnity insurer. By his own account, Hamman, 72, played his first game of poker at age 6 or 7. He dropped out of college because competitive bridge was more appealing, and played for money before entering the insurance business in 1966. He’s a 12-time world bridge champion and 50-time North American champion.

……….

The business Hamman founded in 1986 is based on games and odds as well, which may account for the barely suppressed glee with which he talks about it.

Dallas-based SCA Promotions is a prize-indemnity insurer, better known as “the company that offers hole-in-one insurance” because of its roots in golf. But almost since its inception, SCA Promotions has been much more. It also bills itself as a designer and turnkey deliverer of prize promotions to its client customers, which range from Fortune 500 giants like McDonald’s and Allstate to Native American casinos.
