Online Poker is about making a profit but every now and again it’s nice to give rather than take which is why one of the internet’s top poker sites has launched a great way to give while still having the chance to win. The Second Sundays Charity Tournament at UltimateBet is a monthly online poker tournament where all of the buy-ins are donated to charity but you can still win tournament tokens and bonus prizes.
As the name suggests, the Second Sundays Charity Tournaments are held on the second Sunday of every month, with all of the $10 buy-ins going to charity. Each month there will be a different worthy cause chosen to receive a helping hand from the players at UltimateBet. This month’s chosen charity is the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, which helps the families of soldiers lost in duty. Previous charities that have received help from the Second Sundays Charity Tournament include the Sharon Osbourne Colon Cancer Program and the San Antonio AIDS Foundation.
Each tournament will have a prize pool of $2,150 in tournament tokens plus bonus prizes, with this month’s bonus prize being a pair of ‘Monster Jamz’ headphones. If you just miss out on the money in the Second Sundays Charity Tournaments don’t worry as all players missing the bubble will be entered into a freeroll the following day for a chance to play for another $2,150 in tournament tokens. If you have what it takes to finish in the top ten places in the freeroll you will be rewarded with a seat in the following Sunday's $200k Guaranteed Tournament, which is worth $200+15.
To play in the Second Sundays Charity Tournaments you will need an UltimateBet account but don’t worry if you’re not already playing at one of the most popular online poker sites in the internet as you can register for a free UltimateBet account by clicking the banner above and completing the simple registration process. Plus all new members at UltimateBet will receive a welcome bonus of up to $1,100, which is just the kick-start that everybody’s bankroll management needs.
