Willie Garson : Actor and Celebrity Poker Player

The cool thing about Willie Garson is that I had no idea who Willie Garson IS until recently. When I was playing at the Hollywood Poker Tsunami Relief Tournament he was there too, playing poker at a table with James Woods and some others. He seemed really cool, & he was really funny and seemed to know James fairly well. ...Not to mention that he had a big honking star next to his name, which is how you can recognize the ACTUAL celebrity players at Hollywood Poker, and not just the people who might be posing as stars. When I looked him up on IMDB I realized right away why I didn't know him (he was on "Sex and the City" with Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall, which wasn't exactly one of my favourite shows), but I finally realized that I've actually been watching him all my life: Willie Garson has been in EVERYTHING! To name just a few, Willie Garson was on "Cheers," "Family Ties," "Quantum Leap," "Mr. Belvedere," "Coach," "Twin Peaks," "The X-Files"... He's like Mr. Television!

I looked into it some more & started feeling like a proper idiot: he's been on the Celebrity Poker Showdown, where he earned himself the nickname "Evil Willie" for being such a good poker player. So now I know.

Everyone knows that Willie Garson an impressive celebrity poker player, but do you think you have what it takes to beat him. Here's your chance to meet and play poker against celebrity poker players like Willie Garson at Hollywood Poker.
