THE FINE PRINT: In order to comply with DC gambling laws and charitable gaming regulations, we will raffle off the donated prizes listed above. The winners of the poker tournament will earn bragging rights only -- in addition to enjoying the brunch, ales, and other activities -- but will not earn prizes based on the end results of the poker tournament. Everyone who has purchased a poker ticket will be automatically entered into the raffle. There will be a maximum 90 raffle tickets (minimum 1 in 6 chances of winning).
