TRONbet Platform will hold the first annual Binance Charity Poker Cup charity poker tournament. The event will take place on June 14th.

The participants of the tournament, among others, will be the creator of Litecoin, Charlie Lee, founder of the blockchain platform TRON, Justin Sun, and Binance Exchange CEO Changpen Zhao, is evidenced by the publication on the website MrsCryptoFreak.

The tournament is organized in the framework of the cooperation of the charity division of Binance and TRONbet. Half of the funds raised — 1 million TRX or about $33,000 — will be transferred to the Binance Charity, which will spend them on supporting children in Uganda.

Eight places at the poker table will be occupied by well-known representatives of the cryptocurrency industry and professional players. The last place will be auctioned to one of the community members. At the time of publication, the leader is the user who offered 180,000 TRX ($5,400) for the right to participate in the tournament.

Earlier, Charlie Lee’s brother and the founder of BTCChina, Bobby, who took part in the World Series of Poker (WSOP), were particularly interested in the game, while others were silent about their experience at the card table.

In April, Binance Charity announced a fundraiser for the restoration of Notre Dame in Paris.
