Charity Championship gets Online Casino Sponsorship

TigerGaming.com is to sponsor the Canadian Texas Hold’em Charity Championship, a national and regional Hold’em tournament that started life in Montreal and has now expanded to include Toronto this year.

Tuesday, May 30 sees the start of regional tournaments in both Montreal and Toronto, which will eventually produce the final top 10 players who will go on to compete in the final table championship in Las Vegas.

The successful players will be awarded prizes for winning their local tournament, and then be flown to Las Vegas to compete in the final table championship for the grand prize worth around $15,000, including travel, accommodation and entry fee to the 2006 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.

All proceeds from the tournament will go to support various Canadian hospitals and Street Kids International.
