To help participants attend the 2023 WSOP, they started a GoFundMe.
For the 2023 World Series of Poker Event #56, Angela Jordison and Jacqueline Burkhart have already funded approximately $18,000 to send more than eight players.
They started a crowdfunding campaign to send people to the WSOP in 2023.
The World Series of Poker 2023 is quickly approaching, and with it comes increased anticipation and reports of developments around the event. A new project’s birth has been announced.
Even though thousands of players go to Las Vegas every year to take part in one of these tournaments, attending the World Series of Poker is still out of reach for many. That’s why they’re turning to crowdsourcing to help bring their vision to life.

In order to bring military veterans to next year’s Event #56: Tribute to Veterans on June 25, Global Poker Award winner Angela Jordison and professional player Jacqueline Burkhart have created a GoFundMe.
They want to be able to contribute to the heroes of the United States in more ways than just the $500 buy-in. The original plan called for just five players to participate, but the success of this project has beyond all expectations, with over US$18,000 donated to far.
This may be the beginning of a new life for one of these service members; in 2022, James Todd knocked off 3,209 other players to win the World Series of Poker bracelet and US$161,256.
