On May 16, Tiger Woods will host his third annual charity poker tournament. The event will be held at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Poker legend Phil Hellmuth, winner of 13 World Series of Poker bracelets, will emcee “Tiger’s Poker Night” presented by the World Poker Tour. All proceeds from this exclusive poker event will benefit the college-access programs of the Tiger Woods Foundation.
The buy-in for the event is $10,000.
The WPT will film some of the action to air in a future broadcast.
The top-eight places will receive a variety of gifts, with the champion receiving the chance to play 18 holes of golf with Woods. Apparently no cash prizes will be awarded.
