Professional poker player and philanthropist extraordinaire Phil Gordon has issued a challenge - to raise $1 million dollars for the Cancer Research and Prevention Foundation. The money will go towards cancer prevention research, as well as education programs.


If you are interested in contributing to the cause, Phil has offered incentives for poker players such as autographed copies of his various books/dvd - the full list can be found at the PreventCancer.org website. According to their site, $300,000 has already been raised which is phenomenal. For more information on Phil's 'I'll Raise You a Million Challenge', you can visit the following websites:
