    Reckon you fellas never played in a charity Blackjack tournament. It's about giving back and for a good cause - not making 8X your money/points.

    Not saying give the house away, maybe 15 people play, say 15th through 10th get 20 points. 9th through 6th gets 25 points.

    You know 10 of the 15 players will just go blow them elsewhere.

    that is such a sweet idea. i would hope you would consider doing them for other charities in the future such as the The Children's Tumor Foundation(which specializes in Neurofibromatosis)., saint judes(great cancer service that has saved so many lives of children in the united states, at no cost to the parents) , ect.ect. As many of you know i have had cancer myself and have NF so its part of my duty to tout this.


    i will pony up the 25 bucks for this, i am still paying off a 500 betpoints loan for this current charity poker tourney though. great idea sbr.

    We would love to expand our charity work. We raised about $4,000 for St Judes at the SBR Bash a few years back and $3,200 for the Salvation Army. It's actually kind of hard to get the attention of some of the bigger ones to help us get a donation page up and allow us to use their logos. But we are trying.

    everyone knows the casino is rigged but it has nothing to do with giving to a charity

    in the casino you are only losing the FREE points SBR gives you

    nice.

    i would more then certainly devote my time to helping the cause if there is ever one in the works for CTF.

    i will be making a donation at the end of the month when i get my check.

    Stupidity huh? How is that certain people can go in there and have winning sessions all the time. I've never had one fuk'in winning session! It's obviously rigged, but for only certain players! So fuk off!

    Like it. I'll play if I can manage to get my ass there at 7.00am on a Sunday morning.

    How late can we pay? Would it be possible to have someone available to process orders and send passwords in the hour or so before it starts? (because I won't be sure I can make it until the day)

    Good questions. I would say you can register and play up to 15 minutes before the tourney starts.

    There will be no knock out The Prick tourney that day, only the benefit tourney. But we will get The Prick to play and put a 200 point bounty on him. Good idea.

    Might I suggest that you don't play in the casino, or is that like asking a crack addict not to smoke crack?

    Which players have winning sessions all the time? I didn't think real life people were this dumb. You must be a cartoon.

    I just tried to buy the donation but the "Add to Cart" button is not active/does not work.

    Any ideas?

    What browser are you using? And do you have AdBlock+ installed? I'm on Chrome and I could Add to Cart just now. Maybe try switching your browser and/or disabling AdBlock if you have it.

    Strange, I have never had a problem in the store before but now it does not seem to work with Internet Explorer 9. I was able to use Firefox and it worked fine!

    I'm in, I just hope I can play in the tourney!

    Cheers!

    My thoughts exactly, BD! Just bought in but even if I can't play, every thing I've ever heard/read about DWB has been positive so it's great SBR is doing things like this.

    KUDOS, SBR!

    Here's to hoping I get to eliminate ya in the tourney, BD!
