Dubbed “Slay Cancer with Poker,” the $300 buy-in event with $100 re-buys and $100 add-ons will take place at View Nightclub at Palms Casino Resort on Saturday, Jan. 18, 2020.
The “Slay Cancer with Poker” event will begin with an open bar reception and hors d’oeuvres at 3:30 p.m. PST. Beginning at 5:00 p.m. PST, players can compete to win the grand prize of a $10,000 2020 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event seat. Additionally, there will be $1,000 cash bonuses for purchasing the most rebuys and for the chip leader, bounty prizes, and many other prizes including a silent auction and 50/50 cash raffle drawing.

All net proceeds from the event will benefit TRF.
