LAS VEGAS, NV: There are a lot of charity poker events, all for good causes; but that means poker professionals get a lot of requests to appear for worthy causes and sometimes they just have to decline. On Friday, April 18th the pros will all be saying “Yes!” for the 2nd Annual Jennifer Harman Poker Tournament to benefit the Nevada SPCA No-Kill Animal Shelter in Las Vegas. This year’s tournament will be held in the Venetian poker room and if it is anything like last year’s event, the SPCA will benefit and everyone will have a great time. There is a well stocked silent auction, lots of celebrities and lots of room for fans to watch the action.

Already committed to appear are: Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey, Johnny Chan, Howard Lederer, Phil Hellmuth, Jamie Gold, Hoyt Corkins, Freddy Deeb, Evelyn Ng, Antonio Esfandiari, Joe Hachem, Barry Greenstein, Layne Flack, Chau Giang, Chris Ferguson, David Williams, Huck Seed, Jennifer Leigh, Scotty Nguyen, Men “The Master” Nguyen, and defending champion Kirk Morrison.

A few seats remain for the $330 NLHE tournament for a great cause.
