On July 3, the Charity Series of Poker will return for its fifth annual event benefiting Three Square Food Bank, Southern Nevada’s only food bank. It will be held at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, where it will be a part of the casino’s PHamous Poker Series.

The festivities begin at 3:30 p.m. local time in the London Club on “the Mezz” with a VIP reception that all tournament players are invited to attend. All attendees will be treated to an open bar with appetizers as the CSOP gears up to have a great time for an even greater cause. Guests who aren’t playing are welcome to join the reception for a $75 donation to the food bank.

The tournament will also be held in the London Club and will begin at 5 p.m. It is a no-limit hold’em turbo with a buy-in of $300. Rebuys and add-ons will be available during the first two hours of play and each player will have the opportunity to purchase three rebuys for the price of two at registration. First place will win $10,000 and there is a $1,000 bonus for the player with the most rebuys plus another $1,000 to the player with the chip lead when registration closes. There will also be a silent auction and other fun ways to support the cause.

The tournament is open to the public. Don’t miss this opportunity to rub elbows with some of your favorite poker pros and celebrities while you support Three Square! Past attendees include Michael Mizrachi, Greg Merson, Gavin Smith and James Woods.
