ChipMeUp is a website that allows players to buy/sell shares of themselves at some of the world's biggest live and online poker events. Subscription is free with only a small fee charged for players wanting to put up a percentage of their play.
Each Asian Poker Tour Poker Pack pro will put up 5 per cent of themselves in the 2009 Aussie Millions Main Event that will feature a guaranteed AUD2 Million first prize. The Poker Pack members will be donating all funds received from their 5% sale to the Shane Warne Foundation (https://www.tswf.com.au). Unlike other charities, the Shane Warne Foundation does not directly work with the children; rather they distribute monies raised to established charities that provide essential help and services to children. The Foundation accepts submissions from Charities that are in dire need for facilities such as equipment, emergency transport; or services such as therapy, counseling, life saving operations, specialist care, housing �C the list is endless.
ChipMeUp members 'hktom' and 'coughshamen' who managed to snap up shares in The Poker Pack have also joined the charity drive and will donate winnings from their purchased shares. To buy a piece of The Poker Pack, visit ChipMeUp, find the player you wish to stake and simply transfer the funds.
