Revolutionizing Poker Can Be Charitable
Poker has always been a one-man (or woman) sport. March 13th marks the day all of that changes when SPUNKA, INC., a Los Angeles-based special events agency, brings Texas Hold’em poker to a new level! The upstart company will be holding a first-of-its-kind Texas Hold’em Tournament & Team Challenge in the Hollywood Park Casino. Unlike other tournaments where card players battle the field of competitors alone, Spunka’s tournament combines individual play with teamwork.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 2, 2005 -- While individuals will still be
vying for the top spots with solid cash payouts, those who don’t place so high
still have a shot at the team prize. The coveted team prize is a vacation
package at a Las Vegas Mega-Resort for the winning team!
The tournament
allows participants to enter the event as individuals or apart of a 3 to 5
person team. Each team member competes individually through the tournament while
collectively increasing the group’s chances of winning the team prize.
If
you’re not a gambler or serious card player, that’s not a problem. Spunka has
also organized a Battle of the Sexes themed mini-tournament that caters to those
who just want to come and have fun. This diversion to the main event will even
include raffle prizes and poker lessons for those who want to learn the game.
Prize sponsors for the event include prominent local and national organizations
such as The Sharper Image, 24 Hour Fitness and Mountain High Ski
Resort.
Not only is this a great networking and teambuilding opportunity
for businesses and individuals alike but two great charities will also benefit
from the event: The National Multiple Sclerosis Society and Save the Children
USA. So even if you don’t last very long in the tournament, you can rest easier
knowing two charities will benefit from the event.
