WSOP Spots for Sale on eBay

Yet another poker pro is offering up some advertising space on his clothing for the upcoming World Series of Poker final table for 2008, but this time its for charity. Unlike the pro putting up an eBay ad for multiple spots, chip leader Dennis Phillips is hosting an eBay auction for one spot and one spot only, and he will donate the proceeds from the auction to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The auction will run from October 16-26, 2008. The final table will run in early November.

There is no question that the nine players that will be fighting at the final table of this year’s World Series of Poker main event in November are in an enviable position. On top of this one player has decided to capitalize early by offering space on his clothing for sponsors to put their names and logos. Ylon Schwartz has an ad up on Ebay offering companies the chance to bid for space on his hat, chest and sleeves, and at least one bid is in the tank for more than $35,000.

Ylon Schwartz's current auction is a charity auction for the EDC branch of Habitat for Humanity. 50% of the auction price will go to building new homes in California. Take a moment to see Ylon's new auction on Ebay.
