NC Charity Giving Away Seat to WSOP

By launchpoker, Jun 23, 2008 NC Charity Giving Away Seat to WSOP

The World Series of Poker is in full swing in Las Vegas and one charity organization in North Carolina wants to send a player there free of cost. The prize is the carrot to get players involved in a charity poker event to support the awareness of liver disease. The Andy Transplant Foundation is the charity in question, founded by Susan Thompson after her brother died because a hospital refused to perform a liver transplant because there were no beds available. The buy in for the event, on June 28 and 29, will be $300.
