Yeats Country Inn, Friday February 5th 2010, start 9pm
The poker communtity of the West of Ireland are coming together to help raise funds for the devastated people of Haiti.
Funds raised on the night will go to The Haven Trust, a charity that brings builders, carpenter etc.... and will help rebuild the country, donating their time and skill/experience free of charge.
4 of the best poker tournamnent organisers West of the Shannon are donating their time and their fees to the fund.
We expect a brilliant tournament, with refreshments, music, craic, spot prizes and a bloody good night.
NO REG FEE --- €30 entry fee, with €10 rebuys for approx 90 mins, add-on €20/30
30% of the prize fund will donated to the charity, which will leave a considerable pot to play for!
If you have never played poker before ... what better reason to start. If you do play poker, what better reason to play?
Come out and support, the craic will be good, and let's do what we can to help those poor poor people who have had their lives utterly devastated.
