Last Sunday, my Relay For Life Tournament on Full Tilt drew 158 players, raising $790 for the 2010 Scottsdale Relay. Relay For Life, as I have mentioned on several previous occasions, raises money for the American Cancer Society, which uses it for cancer screening, research, advocacy, and care. In addition, several players who were unable to sign up sent me contributions and alcanthang, who played in the tournament, also shipped me some money. Finally, my friends at badbeatpoker.net held a parallel super-turbo event that raised $80, not including the $32 first prize that the winner also donated to Relay. Thank you for the $933 the tournament raised for the fight against cancer. Thanks also, of course, to Full Tilt which has already agreed to let me run (at least) one more tournament for the 2010 Relay. I will announce the date for that tournament here in the Blog.

It was a pleasure to contribute Michael. Ben ‘Devilfish73′ Suver was the winner of our super-turbo event and the donator of his $32 first prize. He would never ask for props but I thought it deserved a mention as generous donators deserve a ‘shout-out’!
All the guys at badbeatspoker.net!

December 2nd, 2009 at 9:07 pmThank you David, and BadBeatspoker.net, and Devilfish73. I’ve locked horns with him many times in tournaments and he is, like his namesake, a tough customer, plus a gentleman in the bargain.
