Chairman of the Bored

Actual chairs may not be at all similar to this picture in design or size 

Our old poker chairs have seen better days (and frankly, I and many of you are bored with them).  Many of our pots could finance replacing the lot of them.

To replace them, I am offering you the following;

A $20 donation gets you a padded chair with your poker name engraved on a name plate on the back.  You will always get first dibs on this chair.

A $15 donation gets an extra chair for the game.

I would like to get 16 chairs and when I mentioned this at the last game and by e-mail, 5 people immediately agreed to donate $20 each.  (Those players will notice that the price is now $20 instead of the $25 we had anticipated.  Brain Kramp was able to source out a place that will engrave name plates for cheap.)

I will arrange the purchase of the chairs after we have enough to get 10 or the full 16.

These chairs will belong to the game, so if anyone needs to borrow them to host their own game, they will be at your disposal.

Kramps will say fish* on it right?

*fish - a poker player who funds the game with his excessive losses and calls everyone else "luck sack".

On another note, I should make sure to collect the money fro Kramp's chair at the beginning of the night.
