Every entry, rebuy, and chip-up was a generous donation to the YES Prep Public School system. With over 200 entries and more than 270 rebuys and chip-ups, the action on the night was non stop. The YES Prep School System helps over 15,000 students in the Houston area and helps provide life changing opportunities inside, as well as outside of the classroom. The participants and players of the tournament first joined together on a large Zoom call to enjoy a video highlighting all the unbelievable work that YES Prep does for the Houston community.
“We officially raised $1,150,569 all in support of YES Prep students!” “Moving to a virtual poker setting was so different from our typical event and Faded Spade truly made it fun with stellar service and support,” said Caitlin Monteith from YES Prep.
The tournament was hosted by Faded Spade Virtual Poker and included interactive Zoom breakout rooms for each individual table, allowing players to chat, interact, and show off their best poker face to their fellow players. On Thursday, March 4, over 200 players joined together to participate in The 16th Annual YES Prep Public Schools Texas Hold’em Oil & Gas Tournament.
