Crypto hedge fund Pantera Capital plans to reward seven existing investors with free tickets it received to the 49th Annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.

Winners will get $10,000 for the buy-in fee and $3,000 for lodging and travel expenses, the firm said in an emailed letter Tuesday. The company received the tickets from Virtue Poker, a decentralized poker platform, as an award for investing in the company’s initial coin offering, Pantera President Bill Healy said.
