Darfur
Has Poker Ambassador
When
it comes to
charities and poker,
few can hold a
candle to Ms. Annie
Duke, one of the
world's most
recognizable
players.
Some
run for their lives.
Annie Duke is
running for the
lives of an entire
nation.
The San Diego Rock
'n' Roll Marathon
takes place on June
1st and
UltimateBet's own
Annie Duke will be
running in support
of Ante Up For
Africa, a No Limit
Texas Hold'em
tournament created
to raise public
awareness and funds
for Sudan-related
charities.
The situation is
definitely grim but
there is some good
news: the world is
finally starting to
pay attention, in no
small part due to
concerned citizens
who are ratcheting
up the heat on
political leaders
and demanding an end
to the violence.
Last year's
inaugural event
raised over $700,000
for the victims of
the humanitarian
crisis in Darfur.
The sophomore
tournament will be
held at this year's
World Series of
Poker. With your
help, we'll be able
to beat that figure.
Gambling911.com may
also be throwing its
own Payton O'Brien
into this important
marathon. News
on that upcoming.
How you can help:
Race with Annie.
Register now to
secure your spot in
the marathon. When
you register, please
indicate that you'd
like AUFA on your
bib. Annie plans on
completing the race
in just above four
hours so if you're
out of shape, now's
the time to hit the
gym. And, if you've
already registered
and a UB player, let
us know so we can
add you to the
roster. Annie will
share a dinner with
UB players the
night-before the
race.
