Hold'em for Hunger CANCELLED?

I am attempting to verify the information that I received through a reliable source this afternoon that the April 20th tournament scheduled to be held at the Eddie Smith Field House on the campus of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill has been cancelled. The information that we have received would indicate that school officials decided to cancel the event due to a recent clarification of an NC Statute.

Last years event saw a capacity crowd of 510 players raise moneys for Nourish International, a national non-profit organization. The mission of Nourish International is to raise money for projects in Central and South American to eradicate extreme poverty. This recent decision by UNC officials will all but destroy the possibilities of this goal being achieved.

Please make contributions to the organization via their website at http://www.nourishinternational.org/
