On September 2nd , 2007, Big Blind Online had the privilege of hosting the first APA5 (Asian Pacific American) Celebrity Poker Tournament at the Westin St. Francis. This unprecedented event featured celebrity hosts James Kyson Lee (NBC's Heros), Yul Kwon (CBS's Survivor Winner), and Miss Asian America pageant winners!
The APA5 Celebrity Poker Benefit drew over 100 contestants, ranging in skill and age. Big Blind Online provided complete logistics of the event, including outfitting the ballroom with tables, chips, Copag Cards and tournament management, ensuring all participants have a great time. By the end of the night, Big Blind Online had helped APA5 raise over 15K for their non-profit organization to give back to the community. Big Blind Online would like to thank everyone that came out and made the APA5 Charity Poker Benefit an unmitigated success.
