Yasiel Puig used an off day for the Cincinnati Reds to return to Los Angeles and host the third annual Wild Horse Children’s Foundation Poker Tournament and Gala. The event was held at Dodger Stadium the past two years but shifted to the famed Houdini Estate located in Hollywood Hills.
The location choice coincided with the 100th year of Houdini’s anniversary. With a magic and mystery theme, guests dressed in wardrobe from the 1920s. The night included cigar rollers, tarot readers, a silent auction and for those brave enough, a séance.
Funds raised supported the Wild Horse Foundation’s efforts to continue giving back to the Los Angeles community by way of constructing fields and facilities for local youth to be able to play sports, along with funding health and nutrition programs.
