Cards In The Air

Dennis O’Brien to Kick Off Max Your Bet 2025 Charity Poker Tournament in Sparks, Nevada

Poker fans and philanthropists alike are in for a treat as renowned poker enthusiast and our host for the evening Dennis O’Brien has announced “Cards in the Air” at the Max Your Bet 2025 Charity Poker Tournament for the Max V Foundation. This event is being held at the vibrant New West Distributing in Sparks, Nevada, combining the energy of high-stakes poker with a heartwarming mission.

This year’s tournament proudly benefits the Max Vincze Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting innovative research to discover therapies for NUT carcinoma and other rare young adult cancers. Players will not only compete for glory but also contribute to a meaningful cause that makes a real impact.

Tonight, we not only play for the love of the game, but we play for Max Vincze who was just 22 and finishing his last semester of college when he was diagnosed with a rare, incurable cancer that primarily affects adolescents and young adults. (read his full story here). As a community, let's make Max proud and show the world we need more people like him around by funding research that may one day find a cure for these heartbreaking diseases.

Tonight, the tournament will feature a filmed final table of nine players, adding a layer of excitement as participants battle for the spotlight. The ultimate winner will be awarded the prestigious Poker Gods Trophy, symbolizing both their victory at the tables and their contribution to a greater purpose.

Set against the backdrop of New West Distillery’s rustic charm and renowned handcrafted spirits, the Max Your Bet 2025 event promises an unforgettable night of cards, camaraderie and hosted fun for a good cause!

Good Luck Players!
