About the Event

Our 15th Annual Raising the Ante Charity Poker Tournament took place on November 14th! Roughly 500 people gathered at City Winery New York to invest in mentorship and spend a night playing poker. The tournament generated excitement and the competitive spirit of players, donors, supporters, and sponsors. We raised a record $811,000 including sponsorships, donations, rebuys, and silent auction bidding for the tournament. Thank you to everyone who came, played, donated, bid on the silent auction, and sponsored this year’s tournament.

Congratulations to Mark Roman, our Grand Prize winner who snagged a trip to the World Poker Tour Championship in Las Vegas, NV.

Rounding out the top 5 were:
