JOIN MERCY HOME TO CELEBRATE 13 YEARS OF POKER NIGHT!

Join us Thursday, January 29 as we gather for our 13th annual Mercy Home Poker Night!

Back at the Bank of America Tower, overlooking the Chicago River, Poker Night will feature Vegas-style excitement and great Gibsons food. It's the perfect mid-winter night out on the town!

The event features a Texas Hold 'em tournament and charitable gaming, cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, and dinner buffet.

 You can win big too! The top tournament prize is a $10,000 seat at the World Series of Poker Main Event in Las Vegas. We'll award more than $15,000 in additional prizes as well.

As always, the biggest winners are our kids – proceeds from Poker Night support the young people at Mercy Home.  

Don't wait to get in on the action. Buy your ticket today. Our $250 Poker Buy-in goes up to $300 after January 16th. Price for the casino ticket is $150.
