Niche apparel company All N Poker announces the
launch of its “Go All N Tour” of college campuses
across America. Fraternities and sororities will be
hosting each tour stop featuring a charity No-Limit
Texas HoldEm poker tournament where students and
friends can compete for cash prizes while supporting
worthy charities. The inaugural event will be hosted
at the University of California, Los Angeles on
October 16th, 2004 and is being presented by College
Poker Championship™.
Each stop on the “Go All N Tour” will feature
a weeklong series of events on campus including live
band performances and themed bar nights. “The
framework of each event is perfect,” said All N
Poker CEO and UCLA alumnus William Hunt. “We make it
logistically easy for host organizations to put on
the event, while they get positive exposure and an
opportunity to support a charity. We look forward to
introducing our brand within a targeted demographic
throughout the country,” Hunt added.
Participants in the tournaments will have
additional motivation besides supporting charity and
the thrill of competition. Top finishers out of the
250 competitors at each event will receive prize
money. Win or lose, all university students in
America can still register and play in the 2nd
Annual College Poker Championship™. Participation is
free at www.collegepokerchampionship.com and
provides college students with the opportunity to
play their hands at the hottest game around and vie
for over $100,000 in scholarship prize money; 10
all-expense-paid trips to Cancun, Mexico during
Spring Break and the chance to raise money for their
favorite charity.
“From fraternity houses to dorm rooms,
colleges everywhere have a fine poker-playing
tradition. It seems natural to hold a poker
tournament where students from all colleges can come
together and test their skills, while competing for
huge scholarship awards,” explains Lou Krieger,
renowned professional poker player and best-selling
author. “College Poker ChampionshipTM gives any
college student the chance to be a champion and walk
away with thousands of dollars!"
Additional tour sponsorships are still
available for companies interested in tapping the
college market. “The brand is fun and in your face.
You need a certain mindset to wear apparel that says
‘DOMINATE THE TABLE’ in bold letters,” states All N
Poker’s Chief Financial Officer Ryan Maloney. “We’re
looking to partner with companies that realize the
value of associating their brand with No-Limit Texas
Hold ‘Em in the college market.
About All N Poker
All N Poker is the exclusive provider of clothing
for fans of No-Limit Texas HoldEm poker. The company
was founded by two 24 year-old friends who have been
playing Texas HoldEm since high school. They were
excited by all the attention the sport received
after Chris Monkeymaker won the 2003 World Series of
Poker. Figuring that it was time for Texas HoldEm
players to have a brand of their own, they launched
All N Poker, “The ONLY Name in No-Limit Texas HoldEm
gear.” The complete “Go All N Tour” schedule is
available on the Web at www.allnpoker.com
