Charles Barkley Is Gambling Again…

He promised that he wouldn’t gamble again for a couple after running out on a $400K marker, but Charles Barkley is back playing poker in Vegas.

But here’s the rub -– the Round Mound says that it’s all for charity. [TMZ]

Barkey and other gambling addicted players will shell out $5K a piece to enter a celebrity poker tourney–the “Ante Up for Africa” event–at the 2008 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.

Half of all the winnings will go to charity. But being the ever so nice guy that he is, Chuck says he will donate all processed to the charity. That charity being, The Charles Barkley for Charles Barkley Foundation, we’re guessing.
