    "Stupidity" is definitely an acurate way to describe you if you actually believe the bullshit you write.

      KUDOS, SBR!

      Here's to hoping I get to eliminate ya in the tourney, BD!
      LOL, this should be fun!

        Great idea SBR!

        Once I pay off my CC to clear Black Friday purchases, I'll definitely make a donation. Should be sometime this week.

              Excellent idea SBR. And for those of us in higher tax brackets who donate to charities annually anyway this is a no brainer. Will be donating as soon as I square away my 2011 tax strategy.

                    Thanks for the recognition with the badge.
                    As a sports gambler, I got the extra scratch to donate and feel very good about supporting the cause that SBR has endorsed.

                    And for all the posters that have opened fire on me for being a 'lowly waiter' that you make 'X' times more money than me-Where's your donation?

                      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.
                      I'm wondering how much of this has to do with the fact that SBR is a site supported by gambling revenue(and kind of gambling site itself but not as much since its free points, although it does require support of gambling to get the full daily points and numerous other benefits). I would think that a lot of U.S. based charities would be reluctant to be associated with a gambling site especially in light of recent events. I've never personally had any trouble getting the larger charities in the U.S. to allow logo use and name for the numerous charity events I've put on through my service organization.

                              i reread this a couple times and it is still unclear to me how $25 will affect the tax strategy of someone in a high tax bracket.

                                Sound like a great organization, SBR. I know alot of people that don't have medical coverage. Glad to see this organization doing what they can to help in this critical area, instead of just sending it on to a super committee.

                                                          Started too late for what? 300pts gets you a $25 donation (and a good feeling!) and an entry into the tourney!

                                                          Cheers and Good Luck!

                                                            I was going to wait to see if I could play that day --- then I thought of this good cause and the 1000s of points sbr gave me for playing poker with no risk. So even if I can't make it, I'm in.

                                                            Thanks, SBR, for all the poker you made available.
