The Little People Charity Organization and PokerFest are hosting the Poker Beats Cancer event, a poker tournament that will help raise money for helping cancer-ill children treated in multiple Romanian hospitals.
The event will take place on Nov 30th, 2016, and will be organized in the JW Marriott Grand Hotel Bucharest.
The tournament has a €100 buy-in with re-entry possibility, and all the money, including rake, will be donated. More players in the field means more money to charity and to those who face the hardest challenge of life from the beginning.
The event will still have a prizepool comprised of our sponsors generous donations. Hence, for the players, this event might turn out to have a real financial value!
The event is not ours to brag about, but it takes place thanks to those who will participate in the tournament. We can only offer them the chance to use their generosity in a humanitarian way, for a top-priority cause. I’m glad that the initiative has immediate reaction among those invited Sorin Constantinescu, PokerFest CEO
