Alpha8 Returns as WPT Partners With One Drop Foundation For 2023 Wynn Summer Classic

Having previously announced a partnership with the One Drop Foundation, the World Poker Tour (WPT) has unveiled two charity tournaments set to take place at this year's Wynn Summer Classic.

Last year, ex-pro-gamer Jinho Hong took down the Wynn Summer Classic Championship, and many will be looking to follow in his footsteps.

Today's announcement is no surprise, with the WPT having a long history of partnering with non-profit organizations, including the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the Tiger Woods Foundation

However, today's announcement adds extra excitement to the Wynn festival, with WPT CEO Adam Pliska praising the speed it took to add the events to the festival's schedule.
