One Drop and Luxon Pay Mediterranean Poker Party Join Forces
It is not only the Triton Poker Series throwing its hat into the ring because the One Drop Foundation is heading to North Cyprus too. A $10,000 buy-in event, named The One Drop, takes place across August 28-29. There is a 20,000 chip starting stack in this event, but anyone who agrees to make a $1,111 donation to the One Drop Foundation sees their starting stack doubled to 40,000 chips.
Neil Barrett, Business Development Director of Luxon Pay said: “Poker and charity go hand in hand for Luxon Pay. With this tournament benefitting the One Drop Foundation, we are adding the final touch to the programme of the Mediterranean Poker Party which includes the Triton Poker Series. The charity resonates with the players and was an obvious choice for us. We are delighted to contribute to their worldwide impact on access to safe water.”
Alexandre Meunier, Chief Marketing and Events Officer at the One Drop Foundation said: “It has been an amazing year for us so far with the passing of the landmark $25 million total raised through our poker initiatives. Crossing the Atlantic is another important milestone in our beautiful story with the poker community, one that will enable us to transform even more lives.”
