| !PLEASE READ! Charity tournament events for one of our own
For those of you unaware, our very own Woodman is going through a very rough time. His wife is battling cancer. Woodman may in fact be selling his business to help pay for her treatments and spend more time with his darling wife.
I am setting up two charity poker tournaments online at supremepoker.com for November 14th at 8pm EST and the other will be November 21st at 8pm EST. both will be $30+$3 events. Registration will be available a week before each event and this thread will be updated to remind of registration availabilty.
Event #1 the payout will be:
1st: 35%
2nd: 25%
3rd: 10%
All other proceeds will be going to Woodman and his family. (30%)
The 2nd event: November 21st at 8pm EST.
there will be physical prizes ranging from dvds, poker chip sets, magazine subscriptions and money. Stay tuned for more info the prizepool will be getting updated regularly. Anyone with any interest in donating prizes to the event, please contact me.
Please spread the word about these events and bring peoples attention to this thread.Â*
Woodman, you have my utmost support. Anything I can do, please let me know.

I am truly humbled by yours & everyone's generosity. I do not have the words. My wife will be very touched. You have helped bring some relief & happiness to her at a very trying time. I hope that I will have the chance to return the generosity to each of you. (under better circumstances of course)
Take care all

Woodman, words cannot express enough. I truly wish you and your wife all the best in your trying times.
Sloth, I must say, the generosity I see on this forum is second to none. I'm very proud to be a part of this forum, and I will be apart of the events you have organized to assist Woodman. This truly is a supreme group of people here.

Excellent. The more the merrier. So far, I'll say that there are at least 10 decks of plastic playing cards, 20 DVDs, and 20- 1 year magazine subscriptions. more to follow.

Woodman, my thoughts and prayers go to your family and especially to your wife.Â* It seems that so many people are touched by this horrible disease.Â* To your wife, get Better!
Sloth, I can't make the first tournament and the second is doubtfull.Â* Can I donate some money to the cause?Â* Just let me know how you want the funds -- Neteller, or Stars transfer.
Cheers

I have been away from this forum for too long.
I will certainly try to make one of the two events. People close and dear to me have also been affected by cancer, so I can empathize. I would love to help support Woodman.
Woodman - You have no idea who I am, and I have no idea who you are, but all that is irrelevant. I have been through similar tough times and all I can say is hang in there. Never give up. Cancer can be beaten with treatment and pure will. I have seen it.
My best wishes, thoughts and prayers are with your family.
May your family find peace and health.

I won't be able to make the tournament tonight, but if anyone knows Woodman's email for Neteller, I will happily donate my entry fee directly to him.Â*
My best wishes to your wife and you during this tough time Woodman...

Only 2 runners for tonight's tourney. We agreed on a 50-50 split of whatever the prize pool was supposed to be.
After making the deal, I got severely outplayed during the Kamikaze All-in Fest when my all-in move with K5s was smooth called by A5, and IGHN when I failed to complete my backdoor flush draw on the river.
