Chris Webber to Host Celebrity Poker Tournament.
July 23, 2008
Former Sports Star Hosting No River Hold Em Event!
Retired professional basketball player Chris Webber will be combining sports and poker on Friday night at Planet Hollywood when he hosts the “C-Webb’s Bada Bling Celebrity Weekend” - a charity poker tournament to benefit the Chris Webber Foundation.
In addition to the many sports legends that will be in attendance for the event, each of the attendees will be privy to one of the newest crazes in poker - No River Hold Em! This game deals out a flop and turn, but NO river card whatsoever. Players are allowed to bet both the flop and turn, but still use their hole cards to make the best five card hand.
All proceeds are going to the Chris Webber Foundation, an organization that was founded by the basketball great to provide both recreational and educational advantages to underprivileged children.
To sign up for the event - or to make a direct donation to the Chris Webber Foundation - please go to www.chriswebberfoundation.org.
