Queensland Flood Relief: dig deep!
Queensland Flood Relief: dig deep!

As the blinds tick over into the sixth level of the day, we can confirm that the official number of entries into today's tournament is 151, which means a modest prizepool of AUD$151,000 has been generated. Still, with an Aussie Millions title up for grabs, it's nothing to be sneezed at.

We can also report an additional $1,000 has been donated to the Salvation Army Queensland Flood Relief Appeal, thanks to the generosity of one "Ralph B".

For those who haven't kept up with the news, the north-eastern state of Queensland has been devastated by floods, leaving tens of thousands of people left homeless and taking the lives of more than a dozen people, with many more still missing.

Crown Casino have stepped up to help out, placing collection tins throughout the complex and it is hoped that anyone who makes the money in an Aussie Millions event will donate some of their winnings to the cause. As a show of good faith, Crown will match all donations dollar for dollar.

On behalf of the entire PokerNews team, we'd like to give our best wishes to everyone affected by this crisis and send out the call to get everyone in the poker community to help their fellow man!
