As an animal lover, it was nice to know that the money I donated was going to help dogs and cats, and not lining the pockets of my rivals at the poker table. There were plenty of celebrities from the poker world. </p><p>If you&#39;re a fan, you&#39;ll know the names Negreanu, Ivey, Brunson, Lederer, Hachem, Greenstein, Cloutier, and there were dozens more. Jen Harman and her husband Marco Traniello were the hosts and luckily I got to play at their table for a few levels. My best shot at making some money was to try to win the bounty for knocking Marco out of the tournament. </p><p>Sadly, that didn&#39;t happen, although I did knock out a pretty famous player at one point. In the end, I finished 23rd out of 270. Oh well, maybe next year. Thanks to John Caldwell and PokerNews for inviting me to take part. It was a blast.</p><p>Here&#39;s a collection of phone-cam shots from the event, which was held at the lovely Venetian poker room in Las Vegas.</p> <div at:enclosure="asset" at:xid="6a00b8ea0675d6dece00e398f2597a0005" at:format="extra-large" at:align="center" class="enclosure enclosure-center enclosure-extra-large collection-enclosure" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="enclosure-inner" style="padding: 9px; border: 1px solid; width: px; margin: 10px auto;" > <div class="enclosure-list"> <div class="enclosure-item collection-asset last"> <div class="enclosure-image"> <a href="http://harold.vox.com/jen-harman-nscpa-charity-tournament/"><img src="http://a2.vox.com/6a00b8ea0675d6dece00e398f2597a0005-500pi" alt="Jen Harman NSPCA Charity Tournament" title="Jen Harman NSPCA Charity Tournament" /></a> </div> <div class="enclosure-meta"> <div class="enclosure-asset-name"><a href="http://harold.vox.com/jen-harman-nscpa-charity-tournament/" title="Jen Harman NSPCA Charity Tournament">Jen Harman NSPCA Charity Tournament</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><!-- end enclosure --> <div><br /></div> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://harold.vox.com/library/post/charity-poker.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00b8ea0675d6dece00e398f25b3b0005?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p> poker charity http://harold.vox.com/library/post/i-raise.html?_c=feed-rss-full nobody@vox.com(Harold) http://harold.vox.com/library/post/i-raise.html?_c=feed-rss-full http://harold.vox.com/library/post/i-raise.html?_c=feed-rss-full Fri, 07 Jul 2006 15:51:19 -0700 <div at:enclosure="asset" at:xid="6a00b8ea0675d6dece00c2251c90a4604a" at:format="medium" at:align="center" class="enclosure enclosure-center enclosure-medium photo-enclosure" style="text-align: center;"> <div class="enclosure-inner" style="padding: 9px; border: 1px solid; width: px; margin: 10px auto;" > <div class="enclosure-list"> <div class="enclosure-item photo-asset last"> <div class="enclosure-image"> <a href="http://harold.vox.com/library/photo/6a00b8ea0675d6dece00c2251c90a4604a.html"><img src="http://a4.vox.com/6a00b8ea0675d6dece00c2251c90a4604a-200pi" alt="Seven Two Off Suit" title="Seven Two Off Suit" /></a> </div> <div class="enclosure-meta"> <div class="enclosure-asset-name"><a href="http://harold.vox.com/library/photo/6a00b8ea0675d6dece00c2251c90a4604a.html" title="Seven Two Off Suit">Seven Two Off Suit</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><!-- end enclosure --> <p> You&#39;ve got to love the fact that we&#39;ve added free stock photos to Vox (via iStockPhoto) and they&#39;ve got The Hammer... <br /><p><br /></p><p>Very nice.<br /></p></p> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://harold.vox.com/library/post/i-raise.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00b8ea0675d6dece00c2251c9096549d?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p> photos poker vox
