**stikymess** · 11-23-11, 03:33 PM

Just a thought, but how bout all participants cash?

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 11-23-11, 03:36 PM

**ttwarrior1** · 11-23-11, 04:20 PM

300 pts to get in but 300 pts for 5th?

**mikejamm** · 11-23-11, 04:23 PM

Fuk'in bullshit! Maybe if you'd stop robbing people in the fuk'in casino, maybe someone could donate some points! Fuk'in joke ass casino! Use the fuk'in points you fuk players over in there to make a donation!

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.

**ttwarrior1** · 11-23-11, 04:40 PM

so 300 pts is 25 bucks

I'll remember that next time in the casino

Lets have a charity bj tourney

**BeerDog99** · 11-23-11, 05:12 PM

Good Job SBR! I will try and play in this.

It's a charity event you freaking clown, of course the prizes are not gigantic.

Very nice gesture SBR. I will most likely participate, but will wait until closer to the date to see if I'm free.

**neverstoppers23** · 11-23-11, 05:22 PM

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 point loan for this current charity poker tourney though. great idea sbr.

**no1here** · 11-23-11, 05:24 PM

I'll play, gonna need the points

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

**sweethook** · 11-23-11, 07:11 PM

nice job sbr

**ThaddeusB** · 11-23-11, 07:52 PM

How about a nice badge to all who participate? That won't cost SBR anything extra.

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!

No, I'm losing my hard earned points that I won in the sportsbook! The only thing sbr gives me, are the fuk'in 12 a day I start with! And I paid for the fuk'in Pro membership to get those!

**oiler** · 11-24-11, 04:39 AM

totally amazing how its the same guys everytime sbr has a good idea whether its a tourney or donations or what have u,they want more and more.its the holidays try to do something good for other people since all of us are doing well enough to spend time on the site playing poker.at the casino or posting,thanksgiving is a time to be thankful for what u got and im sure there will be a few idiots who say nobody ever did anything for me and what i would say to u is,,,what goes around comes around and all the other post,,,,happy thanksgiving

**Optional** · 11-24-11, 07:51 AM

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)

Will knock out the prick be on that day too? Won't they potentially clash if so?

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.

**darrell74** · 11-24-11, 10:22 AM

$25 to play poker in a few of weeks? Money goes to charity.

What the hell, it's Thanksgiving, I'm in.

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.

**BeerDog99** · 11-24-11, 05:46 PM

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.

what exactly do these doctors do?

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!
