Saturday 10th June 2006 Small Town Poker Tour Continues Charity Work
The Small Town Poker Tour has announced a new charitable promotion that will see $25 donated, from the tour to the chosen charity of any new player registering and depositing cash at the online poker room Noble Poker.
'The STPT is all about giving back and what a better way to give back then to donate directly to the players charity', stated Mark Fracalossi STPT Executive Producer.” Poker has proven to be a great charity vessel and we are just taking it to the next level.”
The tour is looking to raise as much money for charity as possible, and has added a new grass roots look to the nation's fastest growing card game Texas Hold'em, in an attempt to draw in the contributions.
The tour is also set to be filmed for television, with Production duties going to award winning Make It Happen Productions and Executive Producer/Creative Director Billy Frank.
The tour will be not of the flashy set productions you see on television. 'Our show is unique. The finals will be in a casino, but the rest of the show is a tour of world,' Fracalossi stated. The tour will make promotional stops as it travels the country. 'Our goal is to make this a fund raising machine for the towns we visit,' he said.
