Ramdin Gives Back And Comes Back To Where It All Started

CPPT Main Event (Flight B)

Level 7 (200/400/50)
Total Entrants: 68

Victor Ramdin (Bronx, NY)

Earlier this week we opened our coverage of the Seniors Event profiling former WSOP Main Event Champion Greg Raymer, who's first few tournament scores came here at Foxwoods and again, we have a major poker tournament champion who made his first "big" score here at Foxwoods, as Victor Ramdin (Bronx, NY) won his first poker title at Foxwoods in 2004 and then followed that up by winning the 2006 WPT Foxwoods Poker Classic Championship for just over $1,300,000.

Since then, much like Raymer, Ramdin has had success on nearly every tournament series imaginable, from the WSOP to the EPT and nearly everything in between amassing over 100 career results, countless Final Table appearances and earnings of close to $4,000,000.

But, for all the success that Ramdin has achieved on the felt, he's done much more away from it, as he has many of philanthropic pursuits outside of poker, including Guyana Watch, a medical outreach program for children in his native Guyana as well as numerous other charitable efforts to help those in need.

Ramdin is also known for donating portions of his poker earnings to charity, so every time he makes a big score, many other people do as well.

It's been close to eight years since Ramdin's last Foxwoods score, but he's here in Flight B of the Card Player Poker Tour Main Event and seems in good spirits as he's been chatting it up with table mate and professional poker player Tom Dobrilovic, with both sitting around the chip average as they enter into Level 7 and look to bag up for tomorrow's Day 2.
