Windy City Poker Championship

Hey Everyone...so Windy City Poker has put together a special charity event on Saturday June 20th @ Velocity Sports Mokena that is Phase 3 friendly with less than 10 people in the group who will be participating/working the event. It is a basketball competition that will feature a H.O.R.S.E game with 4 players and a NBA format 3 point competition with 4 or 5 players. The event will be streamed LIVE on FB on my page and the new "Windy City Charity Basketball" page.
