Cupids for Charity eventby Linda Johnson | Published: Feb 15, '14 |
Sunday, Feb. 16 is the third annual Cupids for Charity event taking place at Binion’s in Downtown Las Vegas, NV at 4pm. Everyone is invited to attend and have fun while raising money for Poker Gives. Each participant will receive a prize valued at $50 plus a chance to win more prizes and money.
The buy-in is only $70 and there are $20 rebuys and a $20 add-on. The structure calls for players to start with $4,000 and 20-minute rounds. 50% of the prize pool goes to Poker Gives and the remaining 50% goes back to the players. In addition, there are some wonderful prizes donated by businesses and celebrity poker players. The format allows two people to play as one entry if they want, or players can play solo. Last year, most players chose to play without a partner so they didn’t have to miss a hand.:) If you choose to have a partner, you can tag in or out at any time, though the preference is to switch on the level changes.
Some of the players scheduled to attend are Mike Sexton, Susie Isaacs, Jan Fisher, Tom McEvoy, Gene Castro, Mark Hoke, and a few other celebrity guests. Please come have some fun playing poker while helping to raise money for a very worth charity.
