Amanda Musumeci Wins 3rd Charity Series of Poker Event

Hungry for good causes, the poker community has been donating and playing for food & shelter to those in need in a series of three charity events organized by Matt Stout's Charity Series of Poker. @Amanda Musumeci won the third CSOP tournament at the @Borgata this weekend.

The inaugural event took place during the 2014 WSOP at @Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino . The winner was @Andrew Brown while two WSOP Main Event champions - @Ryan Riess and @Carlos Mortensen finished runner-up and third, respectively.

The second CSOP tournament was held at @Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino - Hollywood in late August and was taken down by @Nicolas Yunis.

@Amanda Musumeci played and enjoyed all three and 'got back her investment' :) by winning the last CSOP tournament held during the 2014 WPT Borgata Poker Open.

It was again a star-studded field, judging by the runner-up and third place finishers - WPT Season XII Player of the Year @Mukul Pahuja and two-time bracelet winner @Dan Heimiller!

Half of the prize pool from the event was set aside for payouts and the other half is to be split equally between the Food Bank of South Jersey and Habitat for Humanity’s Atlantic County Chapter.

Congratulations to @Matt Stout for the successful take-off of his new project Charity Series of Poker and we look forward to news of the next events and good causes that the organization will choose to support!
