Ok so this is really straying from the point, but as long as it has been brought up.....
A very close friend of mine has a child afflicted with an awful kidney disease, and he spends probably 20 hours per week working for a foundation dedicated to finding a cure.
www.nephcure.org
This charity was actually featured in one season of celebrity apprentice.
Among other things, my friend hosts a NL tourney for the charity every year , usually the Thursday before Memorial day, where 3-400 beginners play a 500nl with an enormous rake etc, with alot of the proceeds going to the charity.
I help out by serving a bounty, saying a few things, helping out wherever I can etc...but I have an idea.
I cannot absolve the entire debt because I have another person who gets half, but I would be willing to to is this:
If Chris (or anyone really lol) would donate $2,000 now, and Chris commit to showing up at the tournament in NY and play, be an ambassador of poker, maybe give a 20 min lesson or whatever, I would completely accept that in lieu of $4,000 of Jason's debt to me. (I cant see why Jason would have a problem with this as well).He could send me the 2k and I could take care if it, or he could donate it directly. I don't care. Not interested in the discussion of what value that has really....but as the charity thing was brought up, I am more than willing to take him up on that.
If he or Jason or anyone hahaha would rather just donate it directly to the charity that's fine too, but the appearance would be cool.
It would be for an extremely worthy cause and I would be 100% fine with that.
