Harman, a professional poker player and member of Team Full Tilt has been a Nevada SPCA friend and supporter for several years. She and husband Marco Traniello actively seek out potential homes and guardians for dozens of animals every year. Last Spring, the nation witnessed the Lied's Animal Shelter (located across town from the Nevada SPCA) euthanize nearly 1,000 animals. Though Nevada SPCA representatives fought against time to save the animals from eradication, they lacked the facilities and resources to house and protect the large number of victims.

Weeks later, the professional poker player hosted her own First Annual Jennifer Harman Charity Poker Tournament in Las Vegas, a fundraiser that awarded the Nevada SPCA over $130,000. The funds allowed the no-kill animal shelter to expand their facilities and services, thus protecting hundreds more animals of several species.

"We're making a difference," said Harman about her efforts to support the Nevada SPCA. "The people at the Nevada SPCA are amazing. They have so much heart. Every penny counts and these fundraisers really work."

Thanks for info.

LOVE Jen.

Oh heck - I registered for that and forgot about it lol. Oh well - donated for a good cause.

This was by far the furthest I have made it in any tournament. I was pretty low in chips at one point, but I managed to get all my chips in with the best hand, and it held up!

The blinds/antes started going up pretty quickly at the end, and I couldn't find "the hand" that was going to double me up. I did steal a few blinds, and people respected me for the most part (probably b/c I was playing really tight).

AG posted that last hand . . . I was so pissed when the flush card rolled off on the end . Still, this was a good experience for me.
