Doing fine things with the final table bling
Kudos to Steve Lipscomb's World Poker Tour for doing something useful and admirable
with the souvenirs from the Final Table of their global championship this year.
WPT is offering player autographed cards and chips from the season three WPT
World Championship on eBay this week.
The autographed cards and chips from the Final Table will be offered in an attractive

go to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
