Ante Up for Africa

With a growing focus on giving back to the community here at the WSOP, the number of charity poker tournaments has been increasing steadily for a few years now. Still, nothing has come close to the annual Ante Up for Africa charity event in terms of publicity and star appeal since its inception three years ago. Hosted by Annie Duke and Don Cheadle, the 2009 event was held yesterday here in the Amazon Room, and ESPN was on hand to film all of the action. So was PokerNews, and here you can check out our own look at the people that were part of this great event.
