Thanks, but for the time being, the poker tournament is going to support the same charity as the marathon itself.

I'm gonna go ahead and drop due to not feeling well, so feel free to plop one of the alternates in my place.

Thanks to everyone who participated, we had 26 players (some of the first 24 signups, some from the alternates, some who just happened to show up when it started) and everything went really well. Shoutouts to everyone who helped and played, we raised $520 for the charity. The donation was made anonymously to the incentives of the top 4 winners' choosing, and I do see the donation in the tracker, but I have yet to watch the video and see if the donation was read live on air (I pretty much made the donation and went to sleep).

If anyone has any questions, comments, or issues with how the tournament was ran, the timing, the structure, or anything else, please feel free to post them here, and see you next year!
