PokerStars’ effort to raise money for the China earthquake relief fund has totaled about $285,000, according to the PokerStars blog.
The money is being given to the Red Cross to help survivors of the disaster.
According to the blog:
PokerStars recently launched Macau’s first dedicated poker room, PokerStars Macau, with a charity tournament to raise money for the victims of the recent earthquake in Western China.
In addition to the charity tournament, existing PokerStars players were given the opportunity to donate to the relief fund through their online accounts, with PokerStars then matching the donation dollar for dollar.
A list of players who have donated appears on the “Tournament” screen on PokerStars.
