We are a private group of WGA members (and some execs) who gather to engage in friendly card games in the hopes of really getting to know each other’s poker faces. Whether tournaments or cash games, the stakes will remain reasonable so players of all levels can enjoy. In the end, we’re just here for a good time, to make connections, and quote “Rounders” as much as possible.

Aaron Ho – Founder & Organizer
After paying his way through film school with the help of poker winnings, Aaron got his start on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, where he was often featured in sketches as the “token Asian guy” and submitted jokes for Jay’s monologue. The defining moment in Aaron’s life came at age 25 when he unexpectedly inherited his father’s engineering firm. Wanting to both honor his family and continue his path toward writing, Aaron took on the task of working as a writer’s PA by day and CEO by night. That whirlwind experience led to new writing samples, landing him a coveted spot in the Disney ABC Television Writing Program. Since then, Aaron has written on several comedies for ABC, Netflix, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and most recently served as a producer-level writer on the hit comedy, Fresh Off The Boat. When not writing, Aaron can be found playing poker to fund his addiction to sushi and Southern California theme parks. For more about him and his work, visit www.aaronjho.com.
