Tip Hardworking People
 

I'd like to comment on the use of proceeds amount. VDACS requires charities to blindly follow 11VAC20-20-110 for its use of proceeds formula, which harms charitable poker. Charities would be unable to host tournaments, failing to raise enough money for expenses and the required use of proceeds. Evaluating a simple tournament budget exposes this formula's incompetence. The remedy is to implement the newly adopted pull tab formula for poker.
