The charity spectacle “Off the Strip Texas Hold’em Poker Tournament” in Las Vegas will soon follow on last year’s success with Motley Crue’s Vince Neil hosting.

The benefit tournament will host celebrities, pro players and sexy Las Vegas dancers in an intimate 150 player setting at the famed Hard Rock Hotel and Casino on November 5th.

“I’m very excited about the tournament,” said Neil.

“We have kicked this idea around for a while and it just makes sense, since I live in Las Vegas and The Joint is one of my favourite venues.”

Players will have a chance to win a piece of the $50,000 prize pool, and bid on unique music, sports and entertainment memorabilia throughout the afternoon and into the night.

Motley Crue will have played MGM the day before the tournament, heating up the Vegas crowds.

Proceeds will benefit the TJ Martell Foundation- the tournament raised $170,000 last year for the cause, supporting innovative cancer treatments.

“I hope my fans will come out and make this a very special night because it is a very special cause to me,” Neil said.
