Poker Fund-Raiser

Filed in archive Hedgetalk on August 28, 2007

The Hedge Funds Care Committee of Hope raised over $40,000 last week to support the prevention and treatment of child abuse and neglect.

At the 2nd Annual No Limit Texas Hold 'Em Poker Tournament, more than 100 players and equally as many spectators watched as the final 15 players in the tournament received valuable prizes, all of which were donated thanks to the efforts of Keith Friedman (Iron Financial).

The Grand Prize, donated by Horseshoe Casinos, was a trip for two to Las Vegas, including airfare and a three night stay at the winner's choice of Caesar's Palace, Paris or Rio (Harrah's hotels).
