The gala event will be attended by the top players from the poker world, as well as numerous celebrity poker players and fans. They'll be there to honor Men "The Master" Nguyen, who won Card Player Magazine's Player of the Year by making 16 final tables and winning four tournaments in 2005.
The show, which Bodog.com is producing and sponsoring, will take place prior to the World Poker Tour's LA Classic. Bodog.com is responsible for securing the former "Everybody Loves Raymond" star and noted celebrity poker player Garrett. Garrett won three Emmy's while acting on the show.
"With Bodog.com's sponsorship, the Card Player Player of the Year Awards Show Gala will have high production values and top celebrities, like Brad Garrett," says Card Player Publisher Barry Shulman. "We are looking forward to working with Bodog.com on the Awards Gala to bring more exposure to the stars of poker, the players."
