The World Series of Poker (WSOP) has donated one of two “unawarded” WSOP bracelets from the inaugural $10,000 Tag Team Championship event to Raising for Effective Giving (REG), a non-profit charity co-founded by poker pro’s Igor Kurganov and Liv Boeree.
Kurganov and Boeree won WSOP 2017 Event #2, but having only two tag-team members left 2 unawarded bracelets.
The REG Charity is auctioning the hardware on eBay.com saying 100 percent of the proceeds will go to charities that Raising for Effective Giving supports which include Against Malaria Foundation, Animal Ethics and Foundational Research Institute.
“If you haven’t won a bracelet during this year’s WSOP, this is one of the last chances to get one. And you can support great charities in the process,” Kurganov says on the auction page.
Of the eleven received so far, the highest bid stands at $3,350, under the unstated Reserve price, with little more than a week left to tender a higher offer.
