Here are the details of the tournament:

Tournament #44269053 20:00(8 PM)ET

Name/Title: Children's Tumor Foundation
Password: charity
Date: April 23
Time: 20:00(8 PM)ET
Buyin: $5 + $5, The fee goes to the charity, the buy in to the prize pool.
Game: NL Holdem

This is quickly becoming the most talked about tournament on the Net!

I just wanted to let you guys know that all of the pros are now bounties!

You will receive an autographed copy of Mitchell Cogerts brand new book "Play Razz Poker to Win" for taking out a pro! (Limit one book per player.)

All you have to do is PM me your name, address and hand history at my forum or at this forum or email me at chane [at] theroundersroom.com.

The top 10-15 finishers will also get Phil Gordon's DVD (if we can get a hold of him again), Rounders movie DVD or Tony Korfmans autographed book, " HoldemPoker, Tournaments, cash games and embarrassing social gas". (All prizes are subject to availability.)

We got 5 days left to go. Our goal is 900 players - we currently have 177 players. We're on our way to 900, but you can help us out by telling a friend!

This could end up being the best $10 tournament you've ever played in! You do NOT want to miss this one!

It's looking like it will be a great tournament.

All the extra prizes being added are a nice little bonus, but it will be great that it will raise the money for the Children's Tumor Foundation.

Absolutely! 2 days til game time! 226 players already registered! I'm starting to get really excited! I really don't know what to expect. I didn't even know if we'd get over 100 to be honest. But, I hope we can fill it and get 900! That's be amazing!

This does sound like a good tournament - I'm planning to play it, even if it means staying up late on a work night :)

Besides, I did pretty well in the last charity tourney I entered, the Jen Harman one!

That it's for a good cause makes it all the more important to play.

It will be nice to say you knocked out a poker pro. Phil Gordon is a really nice guy so I'm not surprised he's taking part in this tournament.

Just under 2 days left.

I'm looking forward to this, however the poker gods are being really miserable to me right now. I believe there is about 246 registered, and I love the fact that there are bounties on the pro's.

If I remember correctly Mrs AG, your husband did rather well in that Jenn Harman charity event, I also was in it.:) They didn't let us play with the pro's, I was hoping that wouldn't be the case this time.

Let's get some more CC'ers in this, its for an excellent cause and for a fellow member;)
