From the Fairway to the Final Table
A private destination Invitational where golf, poker and premium hospitality come together in one team competition.
Beginning with nine four-person teams, the inaugural Cards & Clubs field will bring together accomplished people from golf, poker, business, sports and entertainment for two nights of competition, connection and experience.
Inaugural Invitational · Q1 2027
Two Games.
One Mindset.
Golf and poker have more in common than first appears.
Patience. Strategy. Decision-making. Risk management. Emotional control. Confidence under pressure. Knowing when to attack and when to wait.
From reading a green to reading the table, both games reward competitors who can manage themselves as well as the situation in front of them.
The fairway and the final table test many of the same competitive instincts. The Cards & Clubs Invitational brings those worlds together.
Competition Is Only the Beginning.
Championship golf in the morning. Time to recharge in the afternoon.
Poker, premium dining, drinks and hospitality unfolding together into the night.
Cards & Clubs is intentionally designed with room to compete, connect and enjoy the people around you, without feeling rushed from one programmed moment to the next.
This is not just a golf tournament followed by a poker tournament. It’s one complete experience.

Be Part of the Beginning.
The inaugural Cards & Clubs Invitational is currently being assembled with a select group of founding teams, partners, participants and a host destination.
The field will begin with nine four-person teams, with room to expand where the right participants and partners strengthen the experience.
“Cards & Clubs Invitational was created around the belief that golf and poker share more than competition — they share a mindset. Patience. Discipline. Composure under pressure. This invitational brings those worlds together through meaningful experiences, genuine relationships, and the moments that happen between the fairway and the final table.”
— Tom Wheaton, Founder
