BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (March 15, 2007) ? Joe Reitman outlasted Harrah's longtime tournament director Robert Daily at the final table in the inaugural Milwaukee's Best Light/WSOP Playboy Charity Poker Tournament. For his win, Reitman designated the $10,000 charity prize to Animal Avengers, an animal rescue non-profit he and ex-wife Shannon Elizabeth founded. The $10,000 prize will be a joint donation from Milwaukee's Best Light and the WSOP.

The tournament, held at the Playboy Mansion Saturday night during the Milwaukee's Best Light annual beer distributors party, included notable pros such as Phil Gordon, Annie Duke, Robert Williamson III, Phil Laak, Jeff Madsen, Jamie Gold and Jenn Tilley. Other notable figures at the tables included Playboy Playmates Deanna Brooks and Julie Cialini, Los Angeles ESPN radio hosts David Singer and Kevin Kiley, and actors Shannon Elizabeth and C. Thomas Howell.

Two Miller distributors were given the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to compete against the all-star poker lineup ? Eric Dowling made an early exit, but Tom Fonz battled his way to the final five players.

"Milwaukee's Best Light and Playboy are a perfect partnership since both brands promote men acting like men," said Chad Dern, Brand Manager. "Throwing a party at the Playboy Mansion for the top Milwaukee's Best Light distributors is the ultimate reward, and then giving two of them a chance to play poker against some of the best pros was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them."
