Now that online poker rooms are not allowed to enter or sponsor guests into this year's World Series of Poker players are looking for new ways to gain a seat into the poker world's biggest yearly tournament. Opportunity Village has just announced their second annual poker tournament where the grand prize is a free entry into the WSOP, giving poker players around the world a new means to gain a seat. The remaining finalists in the Opportunity Village charity tournament will split a $40,000 prize pool.

The tournament is for charity and the suggested buy-in is $500. The tournament will take place on Saturday, May 12 and it will be held at Caesars Palace from 1 to 6 p.m.

The grand prize winner will receive a $10,000 cash prize along with their free entry into the WSOP.

There will also be a tips and tricks session held before the tournament held by Pro Poker Player David Sklansky. His tips and tricks training program will run for a half an hour from 12:15 - 12:45 p.m. Interested parties can attend the program for a donation of $25 to the Opportunity Village.
