On Friday, May 17, 2013, 47 generous – and lucky – poker players arrived at Moorea Beach Club Beachside Casino at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas to participate in the exclusive $10,000 buy-in Tiger’s Poker Night presented by the World Poker Tour benefiting The Tiger Woods Foundation. As part of the two-day Tiger Jam charity event, which has raised more than $14 million for programs of the Tiger Woods Foundation through its sold-out performances and one-of-a-kind auction items since 1998, the poker tournament drew in some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment.
Among those in attendance were the event’s namesake Tiger Woods, entrepreneur/philanthropist Mark Cuban, NBA star Chris Paul, rock star Kid Rock, actor Mekhi Phifer, WPT Host Mike Sexton and poker pros Phil Ivey, Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Daniel Negreanu and Dan Shak.
The World Poker Tour crew was on hand to film the event and this is the clip that will air this Sunday night on FSN during “WPT World Championship – Part 2” at 8/11pm local time.
