60 places are now available to take part in the annual GamesAid Poker Tournament at Develop.

The game is Texas Hold ‘Em No Limit with a 50 buy-in and, to participate, you can register on the tournament’s Just Giving page.

The event will take place next Tuesday (July 12th) in Brighton, alongside the Develop conference.

There won’t be cash prizes for the winners, but ‘a number of other exciting prizes’ will be unveiled, the announcement says.

The money raised from the tournament will be going to GamesAid. Last year, the event raised 7,000.

Last year, GamesAid raised a record-breaking 564,000 which was divided between eight different charities.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
