Former Chicago Bears Pro Bowl player Jerry Azumah returns to the spotlight May 13 with a Texas Hold'em Poker fund-raiser.
The event will be held at the Hotel Sax Chicago from 5:30 – 11 p.m.
Not surprisingly, there will be plenty of Bears in the house, including Lance Briggs and Brian Urlacher.
Other tables will be available, including blackjack, roulette, and craps.
Tickets are $350 for players and $75 for spectators.
The event raises funds for Azumah's non-profit organization ASAP (Azumah Student Assistance Program), with proceeds going toward the scholarship program at the Miguel Schools Chicago.
