I mentioned this a while ago.
This will take place in Leighton Buzzard on Saturday, the 11th of February.
If you'd like to play Poker for a good cause (you decide which charity your money goes to) and dress up in your fines Wild West gear, read below and get in touch. Malk needs to know numbers asap for proper planning etc.
Come on, even if you if you've never played, it'll be a laugh.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!
“The Reverend” Graham Arnold, Malk “The Beast” Williams, and Sue “Tiara Queen” Lee are proud to invite you to our inaugural
Wild West Charity Poker Tournament!
What is it? A No-Limits Texas Hold’em Tournament, where you play for the Charity of Your Choice.
When is it? Saturday 11th February, 7pm till 11pm (ish).
Where is it? Heathwood School, Heath Road, Leighton Buzzard. (About 10 minutes from J12 or 13 of the M1 if you’re driving, or about 40 minutes from Euston by train)
How Much? £15.00 per head, including Food and Entry into the Big Game, of which, At Least £10.00 Goes to Charity!
What Else? A Bar. Need I say more?
Fancy Dress – Get your Tombstone Frockage out of mothballs! Anyone who comes in Wild Western costume get a voucher towards their first drink at the bar!
A Second Tournament for people who are knocked out early. Entry into the second tournament will cost £5.00. You can re-enter this one as many times as you are knocked out, or you could just cut your losses and head for the bar!
Name Badges – Use your own name, or select a stylish Poker Name for the evening, from “Cincinnati Sam”, to “Chalfont St Giles Charlie”, and proudly display the name of the charity you are playing for.
A “Poker Virgins” Table for those new to the game to learn their trade, and to make sure that everyone has a fair chance to get to the final. After that, never underestimate the power of Beginner’s Luck!
How Does It Work?
The top three players at the end of the Big Tournament will each win money for their chosen charity, and if they are lucky, might even get a prize for themselves. If they are really lucky, the prize might not be one of Graham’s “Underpants of Doom” T-Shirts!
The money from the second tournament also gets donated to the charity of the winner’s choice.
Don’t Play Poker?
You can still turn up and have a good time, we still need dealers, and it’s a great excuse for a party!
