Sorry to hear about your dad man. Ill try and get in this but plz make another post on the same day as it is or I might forget :)

PokerStars said that there was nothing they could do to help.

So, I just went in and made a regular private mtt and hope that the winners will donate 50%

Thanks

I will be at my sister's high school graduation at the time, so I shipped you some money on Stars, best of luck to your dad.

Pocket5er's, consider playing your Sunday Majors tomorrow (or the following Sunday) with the intention of donating a percentage of your winnings to this cause. The tournament is great, but if a bunch even donate as little as 2% of their winnings on a Sunday, it could make a huge difference. Hopefully at least some of you will keep this in mind and good luck at the tables.

I wish your dad all the best Devin and I will be playing and donating 100% of my winnings to your fathers cause. My thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family.

Good luck, my mom went through chemo, i wouldnt wish it on anybody....

Wow! That is awesome Court! Thanks a million..

I only did it $30 so as not to get a limited participation..They wouldnt let me adjust the buy-ins and rake outside of the normal 10+1, 20+2 etc

I guess I could always do another thats $100 buyin or w/e at the same time, but I think this will get the most participation.

Thanks again to all the random donations I've been getting from people I don't even know.. Complete strangers!! People really are truly amazing and can flat out shock you.

id love to contribute but only got ftp money... anyway i can ship u there for the cause

I wish your dad the best.

Just to note- The password for the tournament is pocketfives... Not- Pocketfives(case sensitive) Might want to edit that in the OP Devin.

your dad will kick cancers ass. my grandpa had it twice and got rid of it both times lived to his 90s. you get my donation, keep your head up! ps. speaking of charity annie duke is having the marathon for africa in san diego next week (i just quit smoking so i may give it a shot but it wont be pretty).

I lost my Mom to cancer, im def in. If i dont win any in the tourn expect a transfer.

Be positive and help him beat this shit.

Hey man my prayers go out to you and your family. My brother had non hodgkins lymphoma and he beat it. The doctors thought I had Hodgkins disease at one point because I had a pretty sizeable tumor in my axillary region. I think staying positive is a huge part of overcoming cancer but I can't beat around the bush with you cancer of the lymphatic system is bad shyt. They told me I was gonna have to undergo chemo and radiation treatments but it turned out that I had a weird form of pre-cancer instead so I didn't need any additional medical attention except for surgery to remove the tumor. My condition was called progressive transformation of a germinal center and my condition was so rare that they sent the tumor to Stanford to be analyzed. In my brother's case he wasn't able to use radiation because his cancer was below the diaphragm. He had a young oncologist that put him on very aggressive treatments and that is probably what saved his life. Rather than just use the standardized chemotherapy regimen (that the old school doctor wanted to use) she decided that it was best to hit him hard with big doses and less overall treatments. A similar treatment regimen might work best in your father's case as well. I would have him get different opinions from different doctors and see which choices are available to him rather than just accepting the first doctor's chemotherapy regimen. I will play in your monday tournament and whatever place I take the $$$ goes to you. Hopefully I will win it!
