Chief Executives are usually the people you would associate with raking in punters cash at the casino, not sitting down to play with their own. However, this October, CEOs from across America are coming together for CEO Poker at The Palms Resort in Las Vegas.
The aim is to get as many of the nation’s high fliers around the table and have them battle it out to the bitter end. Whoever comes out on top, takes away the ominous-sounding title Chairman of Poker along with the ‘Chairman of Poker Ring’.
Amongst the 200 plus participants will be Timothy Poster and Tom Breitling, former owners of the Golden Nugget and leads in The Casino reality show.
Seeing as they have something of a poker background, they seem to have a slight advantage over the rest of the field. Doubtless though that plenty of other CEOs will have something to say about that.
Expect board rooms to host practice sessions rather than important meetings in the months running up to the Palms event.
