Today I was invited to the Trent Tucker Celebrity Charity Poker Tournament (http://www.trenttucker.org/youthprogram.html). Having NEVER played a hand of Texas Hold'em before I didn't think I would hold out very long, but thought it might give me a good chance to see some famous people (http://www.trenttucker.org/celebrities_2008.html). I managed to last a good hour and a half at the table, until finally blowing it. Good night, great cause.
One of my few chances to actually see Michael Jordan at this event. It was cool that he was there, but even better that he got knocked out of the tournament by a Regular Joe (unfortunately not me!).
Here are some pictures of some other celebrities that were at the poker tournament:
JB Bickerstaff - the celebrity at my table.
Former NBA-ers: Brad Sellers, Ron Harper, Charles Oakley.
Minnesota Timberwolf: Corey Brewer
