Hi-

Here are 9 professional possibilities and resources I thought you would like to know about:

:1: CELEBRITY POKER TOURNAMENT CASTING
Celebrity actress/actor, sports figure, public personalities &/or artist/band. Celebrity should be easily recognizable to the public and not too much of an up and comer that needs an explanation.

Commitment: 4-hour VIP reception at Pure. 5-hour poker tournament. Meet and greet format.

This is an amazing opportunity to play with celebrities, sports figures and professional poker players at Caesar's Place in Las Vegas and enjoy a VIP Reception. The entry fee for the Opportunity Village Celebrity Poker Tournament ($500) will be paid by a local Las Vegas sponsoring company, and you will be provided airfare, hotel room and limo service in Las Vegas for the celebrity and ONE GUEST. Any prize monies won will be donated to Opportunity Village. There will be EXTENSIVE media coverage of this event. Must be 21 to participate.

THE GRAND PRIZE (the celebrity keeps) IS AN ENTRY INTO THE WORLD SERIES OF POKER!!!!!!!! Submit to susan@selectservicesfilms.com. Thanks.
