Put a Bad Beat on Cancer...
 
I'm making this post because this is a great organization, and in case anyone here hadn't heard about it, I want you to. You may have heard Phil Gordon plug it last night during the WSOP Final Table broadcast. He and Rafe Furst started this drive a few years ago, and it's gotten bigger and bigger every year.

asks poker players to pledge just 1% of their WSOP winnings (or any other winnings or a flat fee or whatever you want) to the Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation. This is a tax deductible donation and it's for a great cause. 100% of your donation goes to the foundation.

They have a lot more info on their site... I encourage you to check it out.

P.S. This year, I donated 1% of my gross WSOP earnings in honor of forum member Sea, who a little over a month ago.

This is a great thing, amazingly terrific thing. Very cool of you to give 1% also Mark.
