World Series of Poker Main Event Champion Jamie Gold is once again using his poker celebrity to make a difference. Gold will be joining Khloe Kardashian, one of the stars of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" (on the E! channel) to co-host a celebrity poker tournament at the Playboy Mansion, for the Los Angeles-based Urban Health Institute.

The Urban Health Institute is a non-profit organization with a mission of providing "free health services and education to people who may otherwise have no access to health care, and to provide assistance in the face of natural disasters." This special poker tournament is scheduled to take place on May 17th and will be just one part of an exciting night that will also include a silent auction, casino games, and whatever other craziness usually happens at the Playboy Mansion at night. The tournament will be a $1,500 buy-in, No Limit Hold 'Em event, and already many big names have agreed to play, including Anthony Anderson, Don Cheadle, Antonio Pierce, Mad Mike ("Pimp My Ride"), Mellyssa Ford, Olivia Brown, and representatives from the "Brunson Family."
