It's Mother's Day, and I'm sure you bought Mom something nice to show how much she means to you. Flowers, maybe. A sentimental greeting card. And then perhaps you'll take Mom out to her favorite restaurant and congratulate yourself for making this the best Mother's Day ever.
But let's be brutally honest here--Mom doesn't want flowers. She doesn't want a sappy, silly card. She doesn't want to eat lunch in that blasted restaurant everyone thinks she likes to much. No, what Mom wants is cash. And LOTS of it. She wants you to show up at her door with some long green, she wants to see some big 'ol bricks of Benjamins in your hands...and then she wants you to say, "Mom, this is for you. Happy Mother's Day".
OK, so maybe your mother isn't a venal, avaricious monster like mine is*. But chances are she wouldn't be too upset if you won a nice chunk of change and called her with the happy news. And tonight at 9:30pm ET you'll have a chance to win some serious money indeed. Our $200,000 Guaranteed Tournament set a new record last week with 1008 entries, and this could be the night you make your mother very, very proud of you.
* (I'm kidding, that's just a joke! Really! Mom's a saint!)
