It has been awhile since I've posted a blog but it is time to get things going for the 2010 All In For A Cure Charity Poker Tournament. This year we are adding fundraising events leading up to the main event to help raise additional money and give everyone a chance to win a seat into the main event in October/November. One of our first events this year is going to be a CoEd Softball Tournament sometime in May which I will have a set date here soon. If you are interested in the tournamnet check out additional information  on the Orlando Charity CoEd Softball Tournament page.

This years event was a complete success and we raised close to $10,000.00! I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone who came out and helped make the event such a huge success this year. I met a lot of wonderful people Friday night that came from all over Florida and even as far as Texas to support the cause. There were even a couple survivors who have recently been diagnosed that were able to come out and play in the tournament.
The tournament started around 7 PM and finished close to 11 PM. With just about 70 players registering for the event we had a few alternates that couldn't sit right away but we were able to get everyone sat before the first break of the evening. The rest of the tournament went off with out a hitch. Once we got down to the final 9 players we auctioned off the 10th seat of the final table for $350.00 that went to Dr. Steve Racine. Once we started back up it didn't take long to get to our winner Jose Garcia who went heads up with John Polk to win the event and Kris Adams came in third.
Already looking forward to next years event and seeing everyone there again. Till next year GOD BLESS!
