“I lost every game and I wasn’t sure if I was cut out for it because I was pretty competitive, and I didn’t like losing that much,” De Waelsche said. “But by my third tournament, I actually came in second and won like $25 at that tournament.” “But I drew the blank, which was very helpful. I got a bingo down and then had the blank drew the “E” that I needed and I was able to put the word stocker down.”
