WPT Celebrity Invitational Won By Davidi Kitai

When the final table wrapped at the WPT Celebrity Invitational it was Davidi Kitai who was the last standing. The poker game wrapped with $100,000 raised for charity. The poker players fought for status and the $100,000 prize purse for first place. The prize came with a seat to the World Poker Tour World Championship. The game is more about celebrity than poker pros, and there were plenty of both playing. Almira Skripchenko took second place with Dan Heimiller finishing in third, George Rechnitzer in fourth, Damon Schramm in fifth and Dinara Khaziyeva taking sixth.

Poker terminology:

MIDDLE POSITION - Betting positions approximately halfway around the table from the first player to act.
READ - To determine whether an opponent has a good, medium or bad hand by observing his personal behavior. An inexact science.
SPREAD LIMIT - A variation on fixed limit wherein the minimum and maximum bets are different. A 1-4-8 game allows bets from 1 to 4 in the early rounds and 1-8 in the last round. A 1-4-8-16 game allows bets from 1 to 4 in the early rounds, 1 to 8 in the next-to-last round, and 1 to 16 in the last round.
FOUR OF A KIND - A hand containing all four cards of the same rank.
BAD-BEAT JACKPOT - In some cardrooms, a prize that is shared by the players in a game, when a very good hand (usually Aces full, or better) is beaten by a higher hand. Jackpots are usually financed by taking a drop ($1 is a common amount) from every pot. A typical division of the jackpot will give the losing hand 50 %, the winning hand 25 %, and the other players at the table share the remaining 25 % of the Jackpot.
TO GO - The current betting level, as in "$20 to go" meaning every player must contribute $20 (total) or drop. A $10 raise would then make the pot "$30 to go".
