Jay-Z & Michael Rubin Set to Host $250,000 Blackjack Tournament in Atlantic City

Jay-Z and Michael Rubin are teaming up to host a $250,000 blackjack tournament. Get the details on the celebrity event.

Fanatics VIPs and star-studded guests will have the chance to mingle in the sportsbook while watching the early slate of NFL games on Sunday before the blackjack tournament gets going later on, which will reportedly feature both Jay and Rubin, with a grand prize of $250,000 going to the winner. The celebrity blackjack tournament will serve as Jigga’s first public outing since the NFL announced that Kendrick Lamar is slated to hit the stage at Super Bowl LIX as the Halftime Show’s headlining act. Jay-Z has been a co-producer of the Halftime Show since Roc Nation struck a partnership deal in 2019, and he’s faced some backlash from Nicki Minaj, Cam’ron, Master P and more for not having Lil Wayne perform at the big game in his hometown next year.
