A nice incentive for a good cause. It is always nice to see such moves, from companies like these. And they are no strangers to the place, since they are organizing tournaments there. for quite some time. And the rewards with the packages are great for that buy in

This is not the first time that certain poker players or casino owners organizes a fundraiser to help sick people or victims of natural disasters. It is a natural and human gesture. It is sad that some rich people on the planet have a lot of money but do not donate for that.

This company has over a 100 million euros worth net income (means it's after taxes) every year, yet they want you to pay $100 to 'help out' - how's this different from what you described above?

$ 100 is not a lot of money for players who play poker at a higher level. I don't know if Party Poker will contribute with money to help but they are the ones who organized this fundraising and that means they help. It is more beautiful if they donate a sum but we don't know that.
of course this is a good action for those affected by the hurricane ... it’s nice that some poker rooms do charity work When some kind of cataclysm happens .... This suggests that profit is not the most important thing for various corporations ... Sometimes you need to do a good deed for victims of various troubles
