Thrills and High-Speed Action at the Lake of the Ozarks Poker Run

What a blast! Studio V Hypermedia teamed up with Lake Expo and some of the top photographers in the area to capture the exhilarating Lake of the Ozarks Poker Run. This event is nothing short of spectacular, where stunning boats race through the water at breathtaking speeds, creating an electrifying atmosphere that truly embodies the spirit of the lake.

The Poker Run, now a celebrated annual event, started in 1989 as a simple local race to see who had the fastest boat. Over the years, it has grown into a massive gathering that not only thrills participants and spectators but also supports a great cause—helping fund the water rescue efforts of local fire departments. The combination of high-octane action and community support makes this event something special.

This year’s Poker Run was a sight to behold. The variety of boats on display was impressive, from sleek, modern designs to classic speedboats, each more beautiful than the last. The excitement was palpable, with engines roaring and waves crashing as competitors pushed their boats to the limit. The camaraderie among participants and the enthusiastic support from the crowd highlighted the strong community ties that make this event so unique.

Working alongside Lake Expo and other talented photographers, we managed to freeze those heart-pounding moments in time, creating a visual record of the day’s excitement. The Poker Run is more than just a race; it’s a celebration of the lake’s vibrant boating culture, and we’re thrilled to have been a part of it.
