About UMichiganPoker LLC

UMichiganPoker has been promoting charity poker since January 2006. The site started out promoting Texas Hold'em Tournaments in Jackson, Lenawee and Washtenaw counties, with a couple regulars scattered around the metro Detroit area.

In April 2007 the site went state wide! This was a huge step for UMP, the web site and staff. This is also when a bunch of really techie-geek stuff happened in the background of the site. First off, all of the poker listings went into a database instead of being indivudually hand-edited. Second, the entire site got a facelift using cascading style sheets and templates.

The database has made listing new tournaments faster, easier and much less error prone. Now it takes 10 to 15 minutes to list a new tournament and print out an invoice instead of the 30+ minutes it used to take. It also eliminates a lot of errors.

The search by county and click-able Michigan map are also possible thanks to the database. If you've listed a tournament with UMP in the past, a new tourney can go up on the web site in as short as five minutes because all your old info has been stored!

The templates and cascading style sheets are what gives UMP the uniform look throughout the site. They keep the fonts and styles of text, images, tables and stuff all looking the same. Any new pages have the same layout and color scheme.

Enough with the geek stuff - on to why UMP exists, goals, aspirations, mission statements and so on!

UMP exists to promote charity poker tournaments in the Great State of Michigan! It's a way to combine a genuine enthusiasm for poker with fantastic charitable causes. Where else can you play poker and help out a children's hospital, or a family who's been struck with stage four cancer?
