Mercy poker and UFC 109 "Relentless"
Saturday, Feb. 6, 8pm, click here for details
Come play poker for your favorite local charity and watch UFC Hall of Famers Randy “the Natural” Couture and Mark “the Hammer” Coleman square off in a cage fight for the ages.
Pick a charity
Choose a local charity that you’d like to play for. Pick an organization that does good work and could really use the money. Everyone will announce who they’re playing for at the start of the game.
Buy in
The minimum buy-in to play is $20 cash with all the money going to the winner’s charity of choice. If you get bumped out early enough, you can buy back in for another minimum buy-in of $20.
Game play
The game is tournament style no-limit Texas Hold’em. Don’t worry if you don’t know the rules. We’ll have a lesson beforehand, and it’s super easy to learn.
UFC 109 “Relentless”
While the poker is going on, we’ll project the UFC fights onto a massive screen so everyone can watch throughout the room. We’ll take a short break from poker when Hall of Famers Randy Couture and Mark Coleman square off in a fight many fans have waited a decade to see.
R.S.V.P.
Feel free to invite anyone. Just click here to let us know you’re coming, and sign up to bring snacks, drinks or extra sets of poker chips.

Mission
- The Painted Door is a new church plant in the West Loop of Chicago. We are gathering people for the launch of Sunday services and the building of community. Our hope is to be a vibrant expression of who God is. Like Jesus did, we aim to put God in flesh, to incarnate the transcendent Creator into imminent creation. We long for people throughout this great city to no longer wonder if God is real but to experience him firsthand through his church. By God's grace, we are the body of Christ, the hands and feet of the divine, serving, loving, and feasting as we introduce our neighbors to the Maker of all things.
