If you need to get some more fundraisers going let me know. I do them all the time. Our biggest so far raised over 40k and was put together in 3 weeks. We raise a couple thousand on a regular basis. We have two types, Bowlathons and comedy shows. If you prefer the comedy show I would have to put you in touch with Sheila, she runs those almost every weekend.

Poker and Food !!! Hey this sounds like a good time. Count me in McCarter... What a cheap night out. Who's in ? I need some money to pay for the new Humin bird ;D I know a bunch of you guys can fish. Can you perform at the table when the chips are on the line ? I smell a barn burning, it's gonna be heating up with lots of fun.

If they say I can drive by then, I'm in.
everyones invited but i gotta cap it at 36 so if you wanna play, post that you are coming on this thread and you will be counted in.
This maybe an easy win for me if no one signs up. ;D It would be like winning a big scheduled tourney when I the only one in it ..lol
Don L
I'm coming. One way or another.
Not sure what the payback is. here is the sample payout for 36 entries on $25 buy-in.
1st place $250
2nd place $130
3rd place $100
4th place $80
5th place $50
6th place $30
Plus, we are supplying food and drink (BYOB, we will have pop and water)
And paying back $50 ($25 per game) for Bad Beat Jack Pot
And $50 ($25 per game) in Nemesis Baits Gift Certs
Get the calculators out.
McCarter himself :-\'
john and I will not be "pocketing" any money. I am donating the gift cards and part of the 20% kept will go towards paying for food and drink. i dont know how much the tbf will end up with. whatever is left after the cost of food and drink, so depending on how many people show up and how much the food and drink is it could be anywhere from $1 to $1 billion.
I will expect to see you there, Bondo 8)
McCarter himself :-\'
I'm in. Look forward to one last unwind before the show's really start!
I'll bring a bag of chips to throw donate as well!
See ya there,
If it was on the other side of the state I would be in for sure. I love me some poker!
Tim,
Im cool with you setting a tent up in the backyard!
McCarter himself :-\'
woah!!!!! I thought i had dibs on the back yard!?!?! ::)
I'll play.
Brian , can you send me your address? My email: terrybone@comcast.net
you lost me at deficit. i will look it up later.
McCarter himself :-\'
I may just stop by for a game or two.
cheetam, dont excite the crowd unless you can deliver. we all know you on a short leash. its cool if they wife says no.
Had a great time. Met a few new people. Gave my donation. Thanks for having us Brian. Tell your dogs, next time, no french kissing. LOL
Sorry I missed it. McCarter owed me
I learned to keep my mouth closed around his dogs. LOL They sure are friendly.
all in all , it was a success. We had 30 players for the first game and 27 for the second.
I talked to JJ yesterday and he said Jeff Cox walked away with $350 for the TBF of MI. Not a bad night.
Thanks to everyone who came out.
McCarter himself :-\'
It was fun - thanks to Brian for opening up his home. I promise not to share the secret spy camera pics of the Nemesis bait recipes on the internet.
McCarter - You're a good guy!
