Online Poker tournament for the 'Katrina' humanitarian
cause
September 04, 2005
The New Bodog online casino is conducting five benefit
poker tournaments for the victims of the Katrina hurricane
disaster. It has volunteered to donate the entire cash earned
from the online casino tournaments to agencies similar to
Red Cross.
Hurricane Katrina left more than a million people without
clothes, shelter or food. Earlier many online casinos have
donated proceeds to charity, the recent one being to the
victims of tsunami. Calvin Ayre, founder and CEO of New
Bodog online casino commented that many have been adversely
affected by this disaster and the poker benefit tournament
is the least New Bodog online casino can do to help ease
the pain of the people in the US Gulf coast.
