This PokerCares Blog will no longer be updated.

We have moved over to a database solution to better distribute information about poker charity events.

This new solution will allow the following:

1. People to easily find charity poker events by state and month.

2. People to easily find online charity poker events.

3. Ability for people to get updates on new events through RSS and their email

4. Ability for website owners to have these new events post automatically on their websites through a widget. (Myspace and Facebook pending).

We are currently taking submissions for charity poker events and schedules.

(All those who submit information will be notified when the database becomes public)
