We caught up with Jennifer Tilly during the pre-party for the Charity Series of Poker at the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open tonight, and she shared her thoughts about the event.
On playing in charity events: “I think it’s fantastic. I think what is really fantastic about poker players is that they’re incredibly generous and they do like to give back. I’ve been to a lot of charity tournaments and poker players always rebuy, rebuy, rebuy. They put it in with any two cards and create a really fun environment. This tournament has some really good prizes. Sometimes you forget that the prizes are good because you’re so into shoveling money in for the cause. I think a charity tournament is a great way to kick things off. This is a fantastic party, the hors d’oeuvre, and the drinks are really good and everyone is in a great mood. I think when people are doing things for other people, it makes them feel good too and it’s just a fun time. And Habitat For Humanity is such a good charity. I love he idea of helping people help themselves. Sometimes you forget because we’re all so fortunate that some people don’t even have the basics like a roof over their head. I was really happy to be here and doing a small part for Habitat For Humanity.”
On playing at the Seminole Hard Rock: “I love the Seminole. I was here a couple years ago. Whenever Phil and I can work it into our schedule we like to come here because it’s beautiful. Coming here, this tournament series is a great way of mixing pleasure with work. If you bust out you sit by the pool and have a margarita or pina colada. I will also be filming Poker Night in America, which is a great addition. That will be fun at the end of the tournament to play some cash games, and Poker Night in America is always a ball, it’s super fun.

The money bubble has burst at the Charity Series of Poker event at the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open. Melissa Castello and Scott Efron both busted on the money bubble, so they chopped up the 18th place prize money of $487. There are now 17 players that remain in the hunt.
We caught up with Scotty Nguyen (pictured above left) during the pre-party for the Charity Series of Poker at the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open tonight, and he shared his thoughts about the event.
On charity tournaments: “The main thing when you play for charity is you want to raise money for people that need it. When I decide to play something like this I can help draw in players. So there is more money in the prize pool for people that need it.”
On playing events at the Seminole Hard Rock: “It’s fun here, I like this tournament because you buy-in one time.”
On single-entry tournaments: It’s do or die baby. Bad players with money take chances, and if they don’t get there they just buy-in again. The best player wins at this tournament.”
