Poker Bushfire Appeal Tournament - Celebrity Bounty Event.

[Garth Kay]

All at FHG have been saddened and moved by the bushfire tragedy that struck several parts of Victoria over the weekend.

In response to this and as a way of generating significant funds we are currently putting plans in place to run a Celebrity Bushfire Appeal event in Victoria.

So far we are hoping to do the following:

Aussie Millions seat or WSOP seat as a major prize

Held at Caulfield Racecourse on Saturday the 28th of Feb, in conjunction with a raceday.

The event would be a buy in event with re-buys and add-ons and ALL funds raised going directly to support the victims of the bushfire.


The following parties have committed support to the event verbally with more details to follow: 888, SEN, Glen Archer and Stride Management, National Sports Merchandise company, Eye Candy design. We are in the process of developing a logo specifically for this event and printing it on T-shirts to put on the celebrities and to sell on the day.


This event will be a $50 rebuy event, there will be unlimited rebuys and a single or double add on available at the break.

We are finalising details of who the celebrities will be and the prizes involved, once we have that information I will post a more thorough announcement.

Pre purchase of tickets will be available via purchasing tickets through the NPL website. We will have a player cap of 280 so seats are limited and we plan to have 40 celebrities donating their time for this event.

If you have any more questions please do not hesitate to ask.
