Starlight Challenge
 
October 27, 2009

Poker players love to play a good game. Many times it doesn't even matter what the payout is as long as there has been a challenge met at these poker tournaments that they are so fond of. Quite often they find themselves seeking out that next great game not necessarily knowing what they are looking for. Annie Duke and Phil Hellmuth might just have the answer for them.
 
These poker professionals know that they can bring in millions of dollars from poker tournaments which means very little when compared to what they can do with a poker tournament that is for charity. The poker players are both Ultimate Bet pros who love to play for charity. Quite often you will see the two of them playing at various charitable events just because it is near and dear to their heart.
 
This time around the poker players will be participating at the Starlight Poker Challenge that will be hosted at the Gare Windsor in Montréal. The event is going to be running from November 14 through November 18 and first-place prize will take home $100,000. This is the biggest prize pool that has ever been awarded in Canadian territory.
 
If you wish to participate in this televised poker event you must pay the buy-in of $500 which will give you 10,000 chips to start with. If you choose to you can pay a $750 buy-in fee that will give you the VIP entry as well as a 20,000 starting chip stack. In addition you will get exclusive access to the training boot camp that Hellmuth and do are going to be writing on November 14.
