The Second-Annual Jennifer Harman Charity Poker Tournament is taking place tomorrow at the Venetian, and seats are still available.

A red-carpet reception will begin at 2 p.m., just before the start of the event at 3 p.m. The recommended donation (buy-in) is $300, and optional re-donations (rebuys) of $200 will be available throughout the first three levels of play. The first-place finisher will receive a $10,000 seat into the World Series of Poker main event, and 100 percent of the prize pool will go to the NSPCA.

Confirmed poker pros like Phil Ivey, Johnny Chan, Phil Hellmuth, and Erick Lindgren, along with celebrities including NFL quarterback Shaun King and snowboarders Jeff Brushie, Keir Dillon, and Ross Powers will be in attendance. For a chance to play with the pros and celebs, preregistration for the event is available by clicking here.

At the inaugural event, Kirk Morrison was the winner, and $130,000 was raised for the NSPCA, a non-profit organization and no-kill animal sanctuary. Because of the enormous donation, a new wing was added to the NSPCA headquarters that opened earlier this month.
