I know that I have made the distinction between my tai chi blog and my poker blog on here once ot twice before, but now I’m actively encouraging people to go and check out my poker blog from here. www.beatme.wordpress.com
After Joannas offer of some free lessons as an incentive to give up smoking, I began to think about how others might be able to benefit as well. I thought about asking friends to sponsor me to stop smoking etc, but all that sort of thing has been done before. It suddenly occured to me that to give something back, I didn’t have to rely on the smoking issue, I could just do something!
Eventually I came up with the idea of a charity poker tournament, it’s what I love to do and thought a few poker friends might be interested in playing a game and maybe we might raise £100 between us. What has happened in the last 12 hours or so has stunned me. My poker blog took over 100 hits last night, the previous best being 30 something. To say that I am shocked at the attitudes and generosity of people could only be described as an understatement.
I don’t want to write a new post on my poker blog at the moment, for fear of the current page being missed by visitors. Please take a look and see the generosity of the online poker community for yourselves, and if you fancy playing in the game too everyone will be welcome. www.beatme.wordpress.com
