Poker Pets

We usually play poker because we want to satisfy ourselves and our insatiable craving for money. But have you heard of something like poker for a cause? Oh yes, just try coming up with answers like, "Oh, yes, I've got a cause, and it's for money and hot chicks," and I'll give you a real run for your money. Seriously now, here's one reason to believe that poker can actually be so noble, after all.

Introducing Poker For Pets. It's a charitable organization that is dedicated to raising money for pet rescues in the county of Alachua. Each month, Poker for Pets conducts a poker tourney, the no-limit Texas Hold 'Em type. For every buy in, you show how much you care for those animals neglected or abandoned in the streets. You grant them another lease of life, this time one that will guarantee that they'll be in good condition.

Materially, you can't really benefit much from playing in Poker For Pets. That's because the whole amount you spent for buying in goes to the charity. Of course, that is minus the fees that online payments solutions service PayPal charges. You know what you'll get here in place of money? It's the good feeling that comes with being a good guy every once in a while. For once, poker does not have to bring to mind images of goons and scantily clad women. Poker For Pets actually tells us that we can be angels in our own little way, too, while still being cool and having fun.
