The tournament was held in conjunction with the BodogFight: Season 1 finale, which took place at the PNE Agrodome that night.

The private function saw Gold along with television, film and sport stars compete for a first-place prize that included a stunning Giantto watch. The second place prize was a 2007 WSOP Main Event buy-in while third place was worth a complete Bodog Poker Set, including a custom-made Bodog poker table and a custom Bodog poker chip set.

The heated tournament was won by none other than Jamie Gold. The second place winner, who will go to next year's World Series of Poker courtesy of Bodog, is actor Aaron Douglas. Douglas plays Chief Petty Officer Galen Tyrol on the Sci-Fi Channel's hit show, "Battlestar Galactica." The third place winner was actor Ryan Robbins, who currently stars on the Canadian TV comedy "Alice, I Think."
