The Big Bet Benefiting Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana

 
 

The Big Bet benefiting Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana was a virtual fundraising event hosted on the Faded Spade Virtual Poker platform to help raise funds for families and make children's wishes come true. It was a poker-themed bourbon night as well as many interesting bourbons were featured during the entertaining live stream show that coincided with the virtual poker tournament.

With over 150 donors, more than 100 re-buy, and many chip add-ons, there was never a shortage of action and fun during this virtual charity poker fundraising tournament. Each donation will help make a life-changing difference in the life of many special children. 

A special moment occurred as the tournament ended for the night when the 3rd place finisher named “Briro” immediately requested that all of their winnings be donated back to the Make-A-Wish foundation.

The Big Bet was also streamed live on Twitch to an audience all across the globe, allowing anyone to join in on the fun and to help make a difference. With some amazing guests like Maria Ho, Greg Raymer, and Darren Elias, this event was truly a show to see from start to finish.
