This my poker charter as of the above date
Any poker tournament, any winnings will be split on a ratio i.e.

1/3 of any winnings will be donated to charity, the charity benefiting (if any) is the:
The Capuchin Day Centre,
29 Bow Street, Dublin 7.

1/3 of the winnings to be shared with family (friends).

1/3 to be decided on whatever, usually my bankroll.
This Charter will last for six months; on the 21st October this charter will be revised. A full record of tournaments will be kept at the end of each fortnight payments if any will be passed onto the charity.


Failure to adhere fully to this charter will mean a complete withdrawal from Texas Holdem on a permanent basis.

Thank you very much for your kind offer, as you said it is a very worthy cause.
If possible could you make a donation instead to the centre.

How has this been going? Is it just live or online you are playing?

Going well thanks , went through a bad patch recently where flips weren't going my way back on track now.

Live tournaments only no cash ! €2,000+ been passed over to charity since PokerCharter began. The work these people do is fantastic. Speaking to the volunteers they talk of the "new poor". Every cent donated goes where it's needed.

Humbling experience.
All that and my poker has improved. Win. Win :-)

Well done! Hope it's still going well for you. Haven't played poker in ages but getting a slight urge watching a few of the main event episodes. Might try something similar to yourself with my remaining roll on party. Will have to be cash though as i can't commit the time to tournaments

[BobSloane]

Hmmm, bad start, down 3BIs. The charity will owe me quite a bit of money if this continues

[BobSloane]

Finished up 7 BIs for my october effort in a mere 2600 hands. The local special needs kids should soon be high fiving the shit out of me
