Poker + Steak Dinner + Open Bar All for $200 at Saturday's CSOP Event in Las Vegas
The Charity Series of Poker (CSOP) will host its 93rd event this Saturday, February 7. The "Hearts in the Crease" will take place at Via Brazil Steakhouse in Las Vegas. All $200 tickets include an all-you-can-eat Brazilian rodizio-style dinner and open bar. All proceeds will benefit Vegas Golden Chariots Special Hockey, the only special hockey team in Nevada. Guests who don't want to play poker can secure a ticket for dinner and open bar for $150.
The Vegas Golden Chariots Special Hockey Team is committed to creating "a place to belong" where athletes with cognitive disabilities can play hockey, build friendships, and feel supported by a community that cheers for all.
"I know some people may think a kids' hockey team isn't as impactful as many of the amazing nonprofits we work with, but I assure you, it may be more so," said Matt Stout, President and Founder of the CSOP. "These neurodivergent kids need an outlet and a place to belong that they have a hard time finding around neurotypicals. We want to help pay for ice time, gear, and travel to tournaments so they can play against other special hockey teams since they're the only ones in Nevada. Ice hockey was one of the only things that helped steer me off a dark path as a kid, and being able to coach my autistic son on this team has been a dream come true for me."
There will also be a silent auction open to the public, including those unable to attend. You can bid from anywhere, so check out what's on offer by clicking here. The dinner and open bar will begin at 5:30 p.m. local time with the poker tournament starting at 7 p.m. Players will start with 10,000 in chips, with rebuys and add-ons available. Late registration will remain open until 9:30 p.m.
Among those slated to attend as celebrity bounties are artist Sean Kieth, adult actresses Rebel Lynn & Katie Morgan, 2013 WSOP Main Event champ Ryan Riess, musician "Fat Mike" Burkett, and more. The prize pool consists of three Margaritaville cruise packages plus over $10,000 in donated prizes.
