Elway, Clooney, Ivey to participate in Super Bowl Weekend celebrity poker tournament

Poker media powerhouse All In's charitable organization, All In Cause, will host a three-day charity event on Super Bowl Weekend in Paradise Valley, Arizona that includes a charity poker tournament that is set to host some of the biggest names in Hollywood, the sports world and, of course, in poker. Hosted by Ivey League, poker megastar Phil Ivey's poker training site, "Celebrity Night at the Tables" wil see Ivey and other poker stars - including former World Series of Poker Main Event Champions Phil Hellmuth, Jamie Gold and Chris Moneymaker - take on quite an impressive list of celebrities and sports stars.
George Clooney will have hopefully learned a thing or two about playing cards while on the set filming Oceans 11 ... or 12 ... or 13. Clooney, Cindy Crawford, Brody Jenner, Shannon Elizabeth and Danny Masterson are a few of the stars expected to play. Elizabeth and Masterson are known to play some poker in their spare time - each cashed at the Seminole Hard Rock Showdown in Hollywood, Florida August of 2013 - one of the biggest poker tournaments presented on American soil that year.

Two-time Super Bowl winning quarterback John Elway headlines the list of athletes scheduled to appear in Arizona. MLB pitchers CJ Wilson, Trevor Bauer and the recently retired Jamie Moyer are also on the list, as is multi-time Olympic medalists Apolo Ohno and Amy Van Dyken.
Rolling Stone Magazine will host a Friday night party featuring legendary band The Roots and a Super Bowl Sunday party is also set for the weekend.
Feel like playing a little poker? A seat in the event will cost you $1,000 ... not that bad of a price considering the star power that's expected in the event!

Highly doubtful.

Thought George said he was terrible at playing cards and he never gambles because he's so bad at it.

And Cindy is playing too? Im with you melbert.

It is for charity. He didn't  do the ice bucket so maybee he should play poker instead.
