Let the Fund Rounders Poker Series begin!
The Fund Rounders Poker Series is a campaign that will send regional poker players to major events around the country. By hosting FREE local poker experiences, where we advocate and fundraise on behalf of our network of charities, we are not only scouting for the best regional poker players (our Landsharks), but more importantly, we are constantly working to create public awareness, massive media attention and financial assistance to worthy charities and causes.
PLAY FOR FREE & WIN BIG
Our Champion Landshark received a $3,500 sponsorship into a WPT event in AC!

- 2017 FRPS -
BEGINS JANUARY 2017
EVERY MONDAY NIGHT!
Hello Fund Rounders! We have concluded our 2016 Fund Rounders Poker Series @ Tanner Smith's in New York City! While this fundraising series was created to generate funding for worthy organizations, Fund Rounders main objective is to focus on creating widespread public awareness and media attention on their behalf. Over the course of the next few months, as we prepare to send our 2016 Champion Landshark (Pasquale Montesano) to the Borgata Poker Open, we are working to generate as many media appearances and opportunities as we can, in order to keep our fundraising efforts growing and our message about actualizing altruism going!
If you're new to Fund Rounders and are interested in participating in future FRPS poker events, here's how it works:
1. By registering for one of our FRPS events, you will have an opportunity to participate in a free poker event, helping us raise awareness (and additional funds) on behalf of our network of charities while competing for points.
* Every player will receive 7500 in chips - There are no add-ons or daily second chances
* Registration for each event closes after one hour of play
* Receive a Fund Rounders gift for pre-registering here on our website
2. Event attendees will eat & drink at their own expense. Fund Rounders representatives will be present at all times, searching for skillful card players who could potentially earn sponsorship as a member of Team Landshark. Points certainly have weight but ultimately it's skill and personality that will represent our network of charities at the FRPS Championship Final Table.
* There will be 9 local events each season, where one can play, show support and/or get involved
* Landsharks are competing for a chance to participate in our Fund Rounders Poker Series Championship. This event will be open-to-the-public for viewing, but only Landsharks that have earned enough points over the first nine qualifying tournaments of the season will be eligible to compete in the FRPS Championship Final Table.
3. NINE lucky Landsharks (possibly more, in the event of a tie) will be selected as the finalists at the conclusion of The Fund Rounders Poker Series qualifying events. These proven players will be offered a seat at The FRPS Championship Final Table. The last Fund Rounders Landshark standing will receive the 2017 Landshark trophy AND receive a sponsorship ($3,500 ticket) into a World Poker Tour Championship at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa ($3 Million Guaranteed prize pool).
* Being that our focus is on raising awareness AND additional funding for our network of charities, all of our Team Landshark players will have previously agreed, upon signing their participation agreement, to donate 50% of their (potential) prize money earned at the WPT Championship Event to Fund Rounders, for charitable distribution.
