Amount of use of proceeds
 

I'd like to discuss the use of proceeds amount. VDACS insists charities follow 11VAC20-20-110 for its use of proceeds formula, which damages charitable poker. Charities would find it challenging to host poker tournaments, as they wouldn't raise enough money for expenses and the necessary use of proceeds. Reviewing a simple budget demonstrates this formula's ineptitude . The resolution is to implement the newly accepted pull tab formula for poker.

Thank you,

Joseph Utter
