• Junior Achievement Poker Tournament

    It’s always been important to me to give back and support great causes, so I jumped at the chance to MC this year’s Junior Achievement Poker Tournament at the Aria Hotel.  The tournament was for charity and participants got the chance to play Hold’em for some amazing prizes. The winner even got a seat in this year’s WSOP Main Event!!!

    All the proceeds from entry fees, rebuys, and spectator tickets went straight to Junior Achievement of Southern Nevada. Junior Achievement works with local businesses to help teach financial literacy, work readiness, and entrepreneurship to K-12 students. You can learn more about Junior Achievement at jalasvegas.org.
