Charity Poker Tournament by Montel

While the World Series of Poker is running strong at the Rio, the Golden Nugget Casino and TV personality Montel Williams are putting on a poker show of their own. The TV star put on a poker tournament with the casino's help to raise money for the Montel Williams MS Foundation. There were plenty of players putting money in the pot, including some poker pros such as Jamie Gold, Robert Williamson III, Phil Laak and movie star Jennifer Tilly. All of these players - including Montel Williams - will likely be seen at the Rio in the upcoming weeks playing in the 39th annual World Series of Poker.
