Jan 12, 2018 Prostate Cancer Survival Rate? These Treatments Increase Your Odds There are a variety of different options for treating prostate cancer and improving your prostate cancer survival rate. We describe 11 treatments below.
PokerStars has joined forces with leading men’s health charity Prostate Cancer UK for a special charity event called Lads Night In, which will take place on September 25, 2015.
The event isn’t a single tournament, but rather an effort to encourage men across the UK to “gather together in their own homes for bravado, banter and beers all in the name of charity.”
The idea is then the home game prize pool, or at least a portion of it, will be donated to Prostate Cancer UK, which helps men survive prostate cancer and enjoy a better quality of life. Interested parities can sign up online at the Lads Night In website, and everyone who does will receive a special Lads Night In pack, which includes a deck of cards donated by PokerStars.
One man already signed up is Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody, who will be hosting his own VIP Lads Night In home game in London. What’s more, he’s offering the chance for five players to win a seat into the game. Free spins no deposit.

“Lads Night In is a really fun way to raise money and awareness for an amazing cause,” said Cody. “If you want to be in with a chance to win a VIP Lads Night In experience in London, including travel and accommodation, sign up to Lads Night In then tweet using #JCLadsNightIn explaining who your dream opponent(s) is and why. I’ll then pick my favorite, based upon the most meaningful, witty or creative!”
Regarding the initiative, Owen Sharp, Chief Executive at Prostate Cancer UK said: “Prostate cancer kills one man every hour. We’re doing everything we can to change this, but it’s a numbers game and we urgently need more help if we are going to reduce the number of lives being cut short by this disease. That’s why we are calling on as many people as possible to get involved, raise funds over a friendly game of poker, and help beat this silent killer once and for all.
You likely already know PokerStars calls the Isle of Man home. Now, PokerStars HQ will soon be sitting on the Isle of Men.
On September 25, PokerStars will join forces with Prostate Cancer UK for a special Lads Night In that will happen all over Great Britain and the Isle of Man. The effort promises lots of fun, but there is a greater purpose. Lads Night In is a bid to raise awareness and money to help beat prostate cancer. To mark the occasion, the Isle of Man will become Isle of Men for a day.
Here's how it works: if you live in Great Britain, invite all your friends over on September 25 for a game of poker. However, instead of the winner taking the spoils, you will take all the money from the prize pool and donate it to Prostate Cancer UK.
While we feel confident there are a lot of people out there who would donate without any incentive, the organizers wanted to sweeten the pot a little bit. Everyone who registers at the Lads Night In website will get a free poker pack, including instructions, a deck of cards, and a dealer button.

But that's just the beginning. If you donate at least £100, you will be up for a huge prize.
People from across Great Britain will be able to enter a drawing for a trip for four to the Bahamas in January 2016. Each entry costs £100 and will pay for flights, hotel, and $1,000 for each person to spend on expenses.
That's not bad at all, huh?
The people of PokerStars and Prostate Cancer UK are serious about this effort. As part of the awareness campaign, more than a 100 people on the Isle of Man (including PokerStars staff) recently turned themselves into a human Prostate Cancer UK logo. It was a sight to behold.
Finally, Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody will be hosting his own VIP Lads Night In home game in London. If you and your friends want to play with him tweet with #JCLadsNightIn or email press@pokerstars.com and explain who your dream poker opponents are and why. The winner, along with four friends, will play a VIP home game in central London, with travel and hotel expenses included. Full details are here.
