Where You Give Half Your Winnings To Poor People

Poker. For the poor.
I received this last week sometime, and I thought I’d mention it, but then I clean forgot, as my life is often filled with death defying adventure, coupled with some mystery. And intrigue.
Anyhoo, it’s a poker tournament on the 29th August, that’s tomorrow, to be held at the Old Castle Breweries in Cape Town.
Ever since I first endorsed Poker, it’s become a bit of a social phenomenon, a bit like when I mentioned Facebook or proclaimed Kurt Darren as a South African musical guru.
Anyhoo, the organisers, Labyrinth, have promised this to be the first of many poker events, involving A-grade celebs, B-grade schlebs and the odd C-grade never was.
So who knows, play your cards right and you may end up seated with the likes of Danny K, Ferdinand Rabie and that blonde guy from the first Survivor.
If poker (Texas Hold’em) gets you excited, be sure to make a turn there tomorrow evening. Apparently you give off half your winnings to a charity of your choice, which may scare off the greedy, morally corrupt poker players I usually rub shoulders with, but the upside is you get a bit of publicity for doing that.
And we all love a good bit of publicity, don’t we? Yes, yes of course we do.
