ISM Poker Game Raises $24,000 for Charity

Interactive Studio Management (ISM) Agency hosted a poker tournament at this year’s GDC to benefit charity. The tournament started with 120 players all competing for the title, and raised a total of $24,000 for the Starlight Starbright foundation.

Although the big monies went to charity, the top three finishers didn’t go home empty handed. Lee Jacobson, first-place winner and Vice President at Midway Games, walked away with a 37-inch flat-screen TV. Second and third place won LucasArts memorabilia and a custom PlayStation 3, respectively.
