It’s one thing to buy into a tournament and find yourself seated next to a WSOP bracelet winner or to walk the hallways of the Rio Convention Center in June and catch a glimpse of Annie Duke or Layne Flack as they head back to the tables after dinner break. It’s another thing entirely to get the opportunity to not only soak up their online poker betting knowledge, but to play against them in a cash game and then knock back a cocktail afterwards. Now add in over two dozen of the greatest professional athletes to walk the earth, give them a few racks of chips, throw in a golf tournament, a televised no-limit hold’em tournament, and set the whole shebang in the Bahamas in September. Is that something you’d be interested in?
Twenty-five top poker pros including Annie Duke, Johnny Chan, Layne Flack, Gavin Smith, Men “The Master” Nguyen, Cyndy Violette, Kenna James, Antonio Esfandiari, Jamie Gold, and Mike Sexton are scheduled to attend along with NFL betting greats Troy Aikman, Emmit Smith, and Hershel Walker, Los Angeles Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, skateboarding guru Tony Hawk, and golf master Rocco Mediate.
