The Tsunami Bonus Whoring Challenge

[Greg J]

It's still not clear how many thousands of people died in the recent tsunami caused by the massive earthquake that took place off the coast of Thailand, but it is clear that the number is enormous. This is something that, I'm sure we can all agree, is a tragedy of the greatest magnitude. So, without trying to be all high and mighty, I thought I would issue a challenge to all you guys here on 2p2.

Most of us have some bonus that we have not cleared yet, be it a signup at a site we have not joined yet, or an iGMpay bonus at one of the Party skins. So, I was thinking (uh oh!), and this money could help a lot of people in the Asian South Pacific. So, here is my challenge to you: clear a bonus you have not already hit, and donate that money to a charity to help the victims. Here are the rules: you keep all your winnings apart from the bonus you clear. However, let’s say you run poorly, the bonus you clear can go back into covering your losses. (Let’s say you were clearing a $100 iGMpay bonus, and you played less than break even over that period, loosing $25, then your donation would be $75). If you ran really bad and lost more than the bonus, then you are not obligated to donate. This way the challenge doesn’t hit anyone’s bankroll. Another plus: this will be tax deductible (I’m pretty sure.)

You can donate to any legitimate charity that helps the victims. I donated to UNICEF but if you like another charity better feel free. Post your results here – let’s see what a little good Karma can do for your luck at the tables! Good luck to all that participate in this challenge. And be thankful we are not in a situation where we have to deal with this kind of disaster.

If you you want to look and see if there are any bonuses you have not cleared yet (most of us probably have at least one or two), check out bonus whores to see what you have missed. Let's all whore for the tsunami victims!
