$300 Jason Taylor Foundation Charity Event
Level 1: 25/50
Entries: 72

It’s an exciting night at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood. The World Poker Tour and the Jason Taylor Foundation are hosting this $300 charity event, featuring more than $10,000 in added prizes.

According to their website, Taylor’s Foundation was created “to support and create programs that facilitate the personal growth and empowerment of South Florida’s children in need by focusing on improved health care, education and quality of life.”

Taylor, a former NFL player, was given the starting honors, first taking to the mic to thank the players for turning up in support of his foundation. He also thanked Seminole Hard Rock for their help in organizing this, as well as the WPT for sending talent in support of this event.

“Have a good time tonight,” Taylor said. “I don’t know the rules, but I know you can rebuy for a few hours. So, if you get knocked out, rebuy so we can get more money for the foundation. I [don’t][care] if you win or not, but we do want the money,” he laughed.

The beverages and the laughter are flowing in equal measure this evening, and it figures to be a good time in the ballroom.

Here are the vitals for this event:

• Players begin with 10,000 in tournament chips
