Hosted by Brad Garrett, founder of Maximum Hope Foundation, the charity tournament will welcome professional poker players and celebrity guests including Ray Romano, Jason Alexander, Cheryl Hines and poker champion Annie Duke to compete for a $5,000 grand prize. The final round will take place in Tropicana’s new, ultra-plush Poker Room.

Maximum Hope Foundation is a non-profit organization that offers compassionate, practical assistance to families caring for a child with life-limiting illness.  Its mission is to provide families in need with everyday essentials like housing, utilities and groceries, so they can focus on what is most important: their child.



The entry fee for the tournament is $500, which includes a buffet during the tournament and cash bars.  For players and non-players, there will be a silent auction with rare musical, sports, and entertainment memorabilia. The day before the tournament, registered players may request free tickets to Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club (first 150 requestors only).
