The Relentless Heroes organization will host its second annual Relentless Heroes Poker Tournament on Saturday, February 28, offering a community focused fundraising event that combines organized tournament play with local engagement and charitable support. The event will be held at Mary’s BBQ in the Grants Pass Golf Club, located at 230 Espey Road in Grants Pass, and is open to both seasoned poker players and those looking to participate in a structured tournament setting for the first time.
Dealing is scheduled to begin at 2:00 PM, with participants encouraged to arrive early to check in and get settled before play begins. The tournament format includes a $75 buy in and a $25 bounty, adding a competitive element that rewards strategic play throughout the event. Players will have access to unlimited rebuys during the first two rounds, allowing continued participation early in the tournament, with add ons available at the second break as the field begins to narrow.
Organizers report that the prize purse is expected to reach as much as $5,000, depending on total participation, making this one of the more notable poker fundraisers in the Grants Pass area. The structure of the tournament is designed to balance fairness and excitement, keeping players engaged while maintaining an efficient pace of play.
Beyond the competition, the tournament serves as a social gathering that brings together veterans, supporters, and community members in a relaxed but energetic atmosphere. Mary’s BBQ at the Club provides a familiar local venue with food and amenities suitable for extended tournament play.
Proceeds from the tournament will support the ongoing mission of Relentless Heroes, an organization that focuses on service, resilience, and giving back through community driven events. Community members interested in participating are encouraged to register in advance, as seating is limited and early registration assists with event planning. Registration and additional information are available online at www.relentlessheroes.org, where participants can secure their spot ahead of tournament day and help support a cause rooted in local connection and shared purpose.
