Mel Gibson Plays Poker For Kids Charity

By Alexis TereszcukRadar Senior Reporter

Mel Gibson is definitely giving back this year.

Instead of fighting with his baby mama or yelling at cops, Gibson is getting into the spirit of giving by hosting a charity event where the only gamble he’ll take is with his money.

The Mad Max star is hosting a poker tournament on December 16 with fellow A-lister Martin Sheen, benefiting Mending Kids

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Mel is a long-time supporter of the charity which provides surgical care to needy kids around the world.

With only 28 player spots, the exclusive game has a $2,500 buy in price, and the game is Texas Hold ‘Em.

Will Mel know when to fold ‘em?
