The CSOP 2022 Awards, which took place at Brasil Steakhouse, honored charities, players, volunteers, sponsors, photographers, and emcees. Among those in attendance were founder Matt Stout, California legend Barry Woods, emcee Brandon Hahn, and Jackie Glazier, fresh off her appearance on Australian Survivor.
