I know folks have been posting about the PokerStars charity events but I thought I would throw this FullTilt Poker one out there as well:

9:15 PM ET on Friday, September 2nd to aid the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Registration for this tournament is $20 + a $10 donation to the American Red Cross’ Hurricane 2005 Relief fund, which will be matched 100% by Full Tilt Poker. That means, for every Tilter who enters, we’ll send $20 to aid the victims of this devastating storm.
Several of the FullTilt pros will be playing in the tournament so in addition to helping you might get a chance to bust a WSOP bracelet winner :-)

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.

On the topic of Katrina, Wynton Marsalis is hosting a big charity event in New Orleans right now to raise money for the “Rebuild the Soul of America Trust.” They’re autioning off celebrity jewelry, which includes Madonna’s wedding tiara. All the celebrity jewels are currently on show at Adler’s Jewelry (www.adlersjewelry.com) on Canal Street.
Ouch on a Friday night. Guess I will have to donate and no show.
Good job setting it up though!
