Ante Up for Africa........
You can check out our Video Gallery to see some great footage from the party.
During the party, a charity tournament, "Ante Up for Africa," was held, with many players jumping in for the £500 entry. Fresh from the success at this year's WSOP in Vegas, the event is designed to aid the relief effort for Darfur region in war-torn Sudan. Las Vegas local and 'accountant to the stars' Marissa Chien was the eventual winner, earning a seat in the $5000 Ante Up for Africa event in Vegas.
