THE BIG DEAL

The MPI Foundation invites you to a fun filled evening of high stakes tournament poker at The Big Deal at WEC Vancouver 2010, where one lucky tournament player will win a trip for two to Las Vegas and a $10,000 seat at the 2011 World Series of Poker® Main Event – the largest, richest and most prestigious gaming event in the world!

With the support of our partners, Las Vegas Meetings by Harrah’s Entertainment, Hilton Worldwide and Encore Productions, the excitement surrounding The Big Deal goes beyond the tournament – it’s an event with all the thrills and sophistication of a high roller affair. Meet celebrity poker players. Try your luck at Blackjack, Craps and other games. Delectable hors d’oeuvres, an open bar and a live auction round out the evening. There’s “no limit” to how much fun you will have!

The odds are stacked in favor of the meetings and events industry as well; all proceeds from The Big Deal will go to fund scholarships and grants.
