Bruffiérois Poker provides support to associations

It was in their play area, at the Bellevue barn, that the PBK (Bruffiérois Poker) recently presented a check for €2,000 to Julie Airiau and Sandrine Lardière, representatives of the Cap pour la vie association. A sum raised during a tournament organized in May, to mark the fifteen years of existence of the club. For the second year, we are going to make 115 Christmas boxes that we will distribute to patients present on Christmas Day in the oncology departments of La Chimotaie, at the Montaigu hospital, at the CHD La Roche-sur-Yon and at the CHU de Nantes,” explained Julie Airiau and Sandrine Lardière.

Associative support

This support for associations is not new. “Since 2011, we have organized a tournament on the evening of the Telethon, informs the president of the PBK, Sydney Sourisse. And the poker club intends to renew this investment. “This year, it will take place on Friday December 6, from 8:30 p.m., at the sports complex. The 96 places were reserved in three days. Fifteen other players are on the waiting list. In the event of withdrawal, we will contact them. »

In 2013, the PKB also organized a tournament in favor of heart restaurants that “we called La main du coeur. For our 15th anniversary, we wanted to support Cap pour la vie. One hundred and thirty-five players participated over the weekend. Not having the possibility of charging an entrance fee, it is thanks to our forty partners that we achieved this result. »

Sydney Sourisse quickly took stock of the club’s workforce. “Since its creation on November 23, 2009, the PBK has seen one hundred and sixty-two players who have held a license, he indicated. This year there are sixty-one of us. » Before indicating the upcoming highlights: “From mid-September to the end of May, we organize three internal championships of twelve stages which end with the champions table on a Saturday in June. “.

In 2010, the club contributed to the creation of the Vendée poker league. Seven clubs are joining this year. Meetings begin on December 8. “ That of La Bruffière is scheduled for February 23. »
