Red River Poker Showdown - The PM Group - San Antonio Advertising Agency

 

Saturday, October 12th, The PM Group will host the third Texas Hold’em charitable poker tournament benefiting local charities in 2019. This time around, we’re calling it the Red River Poker Showdown. Knowing just how important the Oklahoma vs Texas game is to attending players, we’ll be showing the game as the tournament takes place, so no one misses any of the action.

 

All proceeds raised at the Red River Poker Showdown will benefit Brighton Center, SA YES, CC YES, Austin YES, and Kindness Daily. Each of these organizations support the individuals they service and help lift up our community as a whole.

 

Registration opens at 9:00am and the tournament begins at 10:30am. Free meals and premium drinks will be provided. There will also be over $40,000 in combined tournament prizes. Final table prizes include a grand prize $10,000 entry to the 2020 WSOP No-Limit Hold’em Main Event World Championship PLUS 2 Southwest Airlines tickets to Las Vegas and 3 nights at the Bellagio Hotel. Second place receives a $5,000 American Express Gift Card and third place will receive $1,000 American Express Gift Card. Top Tournament prize categories include top woman finisher and top senior finisher plus bonus prizes during the tournament.

 

There’s still time to register and take part in a tournament that gives you a chance to win big while giving these charities the funds necessary to continue their impactful work.
