LESS THAN TWO DAYS LEFT TO BID!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've come to learn that the poker blogging community is one of the most caring and giving communities I've ever known. When I wanted to raise a little money to fight MS, the community came through. When Spaceman wanted to raise money for Charlie Tuttle, there was no hesitation.
Now it's time to dig deep for a 2 1/2 year old girl who tragically lost her mother to an extremely rare form of cancer. Little Peyton has a difficult time ahead, but we can make the road ahead much easier for her.
Bobby Bracelet (with help from Spaceman and Shelly, as well as poker pros like Gavin Smith) is spearheading a huge auction and fundraiser to raise tens of thousands of dollars. It's simple, click on the links below and make your bids now!
I'll tell you this right now, I'm going to outbid Mean Gene for the autographed picture of the lovely Isabelle Mercier. And if you don't want to bid on anything, you can still help out by going to this page and making a donation. It'd be nice to donate as much as poker pros Gavin Smith, Phil Hellmuth and Josh Arieh, but any amount will help.
Remember, it's For Peyton.
The timing of this really screwed me up. I don't close on my house for a month, and the friggin' government won't let me liquidate my 401(k) without some bullshit paperwork going through first. I planned on making the eBay equivalent of a 74BB preflop raise to shut the door on everyone's hopes and dreams concerning Isabelle's picture, and goddam bureaucracy bites me in the ass.
