The third annual Ante Up for Africa charity poker tournament took center stage at the WSOP today and a who's who of A-list celebs and poker stars hit the felt for the cause.

Beyond the cash prizes, all proceeds from the $5k buy-in event go to the ENOUGH project and Refugees International, charities that raise awareness and provide aid to the survivors of the crisis in Darfur.

Over $2 million has been raised in past events by the non-profit AUFA, founded in 2006 by Don Cheadle, Annie Duke and Norman Epstein, and by the size of this year's turnout that number should go up substantially.

Just a few of the more recognizable faces: Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Nelly, Sarah Silverman, Jason Alexander and Cedric the Entertainer.

See below for the photo gallery from the red carpet and the tables.
