Ben Affleck to Play Charity Poker
Ben Affleck was one of the first big name celebrities to hit the poker tables and hold his own, and he is going to be showing just how much of his skill he had held on to when he plays in the charity tournament this August 3rd at Hollywood Park Casino in Los Angeles, California. The event will also feature Montel Williams, Norm MacDonald and Colin Quinn, and will raise money for the One Step Closer Foundation (OSCF) which supports the fight against cerebral palsy. The OSCF will get half of the proceeds from the charity, which will have a $500 buy in with rebuys.
