The World Poker Tour Foundation and Pala Casino Resort & Spa has joined forces to create a special $1,100 buy-in event with a $100,000 Guarantee in aid of the Special Olympics Southern California charity.

Poker’s involvement in charitable endeavors continues to rip across the community like a rocketing slug fresh from the barrel as the World Poker Tour (WPT) Foundation and Pala Casino Resort & Spa team up to create further hope for the children of the Special Olympics Southern California (SOSC) charity.

The WPT will headline a one of a kind $1,100 buy-in No-Limit Hold’em event where 10% of each buy-in will go towards the SOSC charity. To make the tournament a little more palatable for the paying public, a $100,000 guarantee has been painted onto the tin.

The event will form part of the Pala Poker Open. Scheduled to take place 4-13 Sep it promises to accommodate players of all buy-in capabilities. The aforementioned charity event will start on Sep 11, following on from an exclusive WPT Foundation party held on Sep 10th.
