Brooks Playing For a Good Cause

During the break, I had a chance to speak with Eric Brooks about his background in poker and about his decision to play in this event. “I used to play a lot more stud in the past. I played some out here in Vegas and in Atlantic City, but I don’t play much anymore. Once in a while I will go out and play a tournament or something.” He proceeded to tell me that he entered this $10,000 Stud World Championship on a whim. He plans to donate all of his tournament earnings to the Decision Education Foundation.

According to Brooks, the purpose of the Decision Education Foundation is to “teach the science of decision making to students in grades K through 12. Teaching proper decision making is important and very applicable to poker.” Brooks also told me that he has been able to convince Annie Duke to join him on the board for the DEF to help further their cause.

“I hope to get lucky for them and win them some money” was the last thing he told me before returning to play. He has a tough field ahead of him, but regardless of where he finishes, the real winners at the end of the day will be the children and young adults that his organization will be able to help as a result of his winnings.
