What’s so cool about poker? Think about it for a second, and if your answer is “cigars, sunglasses, and brown liquor”, you are among 89% of Americans, per American PWLP Institute, who agree. But outside of the above 3, you have so many other options — sparkle your geeky side and argue about numbers (call them “odds”), show off your mental strength and focus, or simply trash talk opponents (definitely included in the rules). No matter what you choose, it will be fun!And all the winnings go to charity. Bam!..
Puff’n'holdem VII is coming to you this Puff’n'sip day (Wednesday on pre-Puff’n'sip calendars) October 24, 2007.
Tournament begins @ 6:33 PM promptly @ Cigar Bar and Grill, 850 Montgomery (@ Jackson).
It’s Texas Hold’em, and $20 gets you a seat at the table.
It is a tournament, so you can buy in at any time. Almost.
There will be some seriously competitive players, but no in-depth knowledge required. More on the rules here.
Winner gets to contribute to a fundraiser (2 tickets to Cirque du Soliel and a pre-party!) for the charity below.
Huckleberry Youth Services at Cole Street Clinic: The Clinic offers comprehensive, age-appropriate, culturally-sensitive adolescent health services to high-risk teens, with peer-education including HIV prevention education, peer-counseling, violence prevention/leadership groups, and community outreach serving as major components of the Clinic’s programs.
Quick reminder: to-date Puff’n'holdem has contributed almost $2,000 to a number of very worthy local causes. So become a proud contributor — join us!
Lotsa love,
Big Red.
