Today is Obama Money Bomb Day (+ Stakage) -- CLOSED

Obama has the momentum but you can't count the Clintons out ever ever ever.  With the Chesapeake Primaries (aka Potomac Primaries, aka Beltway Primaries, aka Crabcake Primaries) today, Obama has a chance to build even more momentum.  Obama supporters are organizing a "money bomb" day to give him a huge infusion of cash.  This is similar to what Ron Paul did last year. 

Anyway, if you are so inclined, please consider a donation to Obama and if you are, please use my wife's fundraising page (unless you are also registered as an Obama volunteer, in which case, use your own obv): 

http://my.barackobama.com/page/outreach/view/main/pillageandplunder

Also, since the last Obamarama Stakage event went so well, I will be doing another TOMORROW NIGHT.  If you are interested in playing in a $5.50 (or less, $4.40s, $2.20s or $3.30s ok) tournament on PokerStars and agree to a 50% split of any winnings, please reply explicitly in this thread and I will stake people until I reach a total of $55 --- EDIT: MAKE THAT $110 thanks to ccmdsn!!  All money shipped back to me will be donated to Barack Obama.

Remember this is for a tournament tomorrow.  Tell me what tournament you are interested in and that you are an Obama supporter, and as long as you are an OT regular and I don't remember you posting some anti-Democratic screed (ahem, threebanger, no need for you to try again) in the past, it's a go.

NOTE: I will not be home until later tonight but I will ship all money before tomorrow morning.


ALSO: Please post what your Stars name is if it is different from your P5 name.

It's up to you when you do it.  I won't be shipping until I get home from work tonight probably around 7:30 PST, so tomorrow will work for most people.  Just please post what tourney you are playing in when you register and BEFORE it starts...

I would like to play sometime tomorrow, I am an Obama supporter, but not sure if you would consider me an OT regular.

th3 magician on stars 75% going to Obamarama

edit: and it'd be cool if all the stakees would play the 4.40 together, or whatever they are staked for.

If everyone plays the same $4.40, then everyone can't win!  I fully expect 20 or so shipments of $108 (half of $216)!  J/K, whatever you guys want to do is fine with me, just please make sure that you post the tournament info after you register and BEFORE it starts.

Okay, money has been shipped to the following people:

Sweetness777
A58W9ER
AJXTERRA
safeinst
Wear
Bodacious63
skankmofo
lvhssr2002
Pocketheadies
calibre908

kmil420

FourFives

IMPORTANT:  When you register for the tournament you are playing in, please post in this thread the tournament number.  Please do this BEFORE the tournament starts.  For those of you who earn money, please ship your 50% to Underdog1969 on PokerStars.  For those of you have pledged 100% or 75%, that's great, I appreciate it, but it is totally up to you if you want to do that.  I will only expect 50%.  After receiving all money I will make a donation to Barack Obama using my wife's link and post the email in here.

IF YOU WISH TO DONATE YOURSELF, please use the link from my wife's Obama page.  When you use that link there is a note field that you can post a note to my wife.  Please put your name in that note field so that I know that you have donated the money.  I would love for people to use this link, but it does require your full name, address, place of work, etc. for Federal Law, so I understand if you just want to ship the money back to me. 

Good luck horses!!!

I will play the $5.50 PLO8 at 9:30pm Eastern on Stars

EDIT: I support non-republican candidates in general.  I am not sold on Obama yet, but given the choice of him vs McCain I will not hesitate to vote for Obama (and I always vote)

If he ships and there's still room, I'll give 100% in a $4.40.  Name is Rakinthefake.
