Just because poker players are stuck at home, unable to play live poker, that doesn't mean they can't use the game for a good cause.
Run It Once Poker and high-stakes player Dan Smith have announced they're spearheading a charity drive aimed at raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, through GiveDirectly.
"GiveDirectly is delivering cash to families enrolled in SNAP (a federal nutrition assistance program) and living in the local ZIP codes most affected by COVID-19," the charity website says.
