In this KUWTK clip, Kris recruits Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, and Kendall Jenner to compete in a high-stakes charity poker tournament, with proceeds benefiting City of Hope and funding cancer research There’s just one problem: none of them actually know how to play poker. Naturally, the sisters bring in professional poker experts for a crash course but Kim takes a very on-brand detour, opting to train with a mentalist instead. Can Kim read bluffs better than learning the rules, or will Khloé and Kendall’s poker lessons give them the upper hand? Check back every Wednesday for more from “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.”

The Kardashian-Jenner family participates in a charity poker tournament for the City of Hope. Despite their lack of experience, they employ professional coaches and mentalists to prepare. While the family members face varying levels of success and failure at the table, the event successfully raises over $500,000 for cancer research.
I don't know how to play poker, and I don't think you guys know how to play cards, so I don't want to go in.
Well, I know how to play cards. I just don't know how to play poker.
What kind of cards do you know how to play?
Gin. I'm like a master gin player.
I drink gin.
Anyway, Shelly set us up with some pros to teach us all how to play poker so we don't totally humiliate ourselves while we're at her tournament.
I like to do, you know, different types of workouts.
Oh, my God. I think you get in right here in this hole.
I don't know. What the f***?
I think you just have to kind of jump in.
Wait, I'm getting in the other side.
This is so cool.
All right, have a race.
On your mark.
Get set.
Flowing.
This is so hard.
Let's go.
Run, run.
This is so hard.
Oh, Kenny, I'll come help you.
It's really hard.
Help her.
Jesus. Yay.
It's really hot.
We'll give her the sunny side.
It was exhausting just watching you ladies.
Yeah.
Well, I just got a call from Shelly, and she said she's doing an event at the Forum,
and she wants to put together this huge poker tournament and do it along with the City of Hope,
so all the proceeds will go to the City of Hope.
They do a lot of cancer research, and I think that this is such a near and dear cause to my heart,
and I know to your heart, so I just think it would be a really nice thing for us to do.
I don't know how to play poker.
I don't know how to play poker either.
She's been asking me to play poker with her for years.
You can just sit there and look cute, sweetie.
Oh, well, that's easy.
I have never played poker before, but given the cause and that my Auntie Shelly is asking,
I will do anything for her.
I find it to be an honor that we are even asked to be a part of this.
All right, y'all, I'm totally down.
I'm very in, but I have to go.
Muy importante.
Bye.
Bye, Kenny.
Have a good day.
You too.
Beautiful.
Love you.
Won't it be sort of embarrassing if, like, all of us, what is it, five of us or four of us,
if we go and then we don't even win and don't know how to play?
Like, that's the only thing that makes me a little uncomfortable.
Well, Shelly also said that she's happy to make sure that we have a tutor or a coach or a teacher.
Great.
I'm ready to learn.
Let's raise some money.
Let's go get it.
Let's raise some money.
I don't know how to play poker, and I don't think you guys know how to play cards,
so I don't want to go in.
Well, I know how to play cards.
I just don't know how to play poker.
What kind of cards do you know how to play?
Gin.
Oh.
I'm like a master gin player.
I drink gin.
Anyway, Shelly set us up with some pros to teach us all how to play poker
so we don't totally humiliate ourselves while we're at her tournament.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, this is so serious.
Ready to learn some poker?
Yes, I'm excited.
Hi.
Hello.
How are you?
I've never done this before.
I'm really scared.
It's okay.
No one here is a professional poker player except for me.
I have definitely got the best pro.
He's a three-time world champion.
There's no way the girls are going to come close to winning
when I've got this guy in my back pocket.
What's the most money you've ever won?
Over a million dollars a couple times.
What?
Listen, Phil is legit.
He has 15 bracelets.
It's kind of like trophies, I guess, in another language.
Do you play gambling games or not really?
I am actually not allowed to.
I'll show you why in a second.
I've heard that in poker you're not necessarily playing your cards.
You're just playing the other people.
So for me, I decided to meet with a mentalist.
A mentalist is going to teach you how to play poker?
Yeah, he does all these card tricks and stuff.
Why wouldn't he give me some tips?
You're going to totally be my secret weapon.
So a mentalist can influence people or read people.
So forget about the game, forget about the rules,
because they're going to teach you the rules.
Poker is all about understanding how the people in front of you think
and understand if they have good hands or bad hands.
You're only going to play my top ten hands.
That's pocket aces, pocket kings, all the way down to sevens.
And then ace king and ace queen.
And fold everything else. That's extreme.
But if you play just those ten hands,
then I think you have a great chance of winning.
Okay.
I actually appreciate Phil's method of teaching
because I don't really have the brain capacity
to hold on to all this other mumbo-jumbo s***.
I'm going to show you a few techniques.
When we get asked questions, our eyes move all the time.
So if you're looking at me, up to the right, telling the truth,
up to the left, I'm making something up. I'm lying to you.
Good to know. I'm going to ask Kanye some questions.
It is so crazy that you can just find out so much from a person
just by little things that they do.
It's all about lying, deceiving.
Scheming.
Yes.
And do this.
I got it.
You got it?
I'm a pro already.
You're a pro?
Let's get something going.
You could even go all in.
You want me to put all my stack in there?
That's what I would do.
Okay, all in.
All in.
Aces and fives.
Oh!
Nice hand.
Wow!
Yeah!
I feel really confident that I know the rules.
I know basically how to play the game now.
So I definitely feel like I've got one up on the girls.
High five. High five, guys.
Phil is taking me to, like, a legit big boy poker game.
And, like, some back alley, some smoky little layer.
Like, it's a little, I don't know, sketchy.
But I'm into all of it. I'm really into it.
I have Scott with me.
Hi, everybody.
It's very, very serious, actually.
800.
800 to go.
Are you also going to stake him in this game and give him 2,000?
Okay.
I'm not looking for any money.
What happens if I don't have enough money?
You just put it all?
That's okay. You can put it all in.
I'm all in.
Okay, Chloe, I have a pretty big hand.
Ace, king.
Oh!
What a ****ing asshole.
Okay, hold on.
That's a bad guy. That's a bad guy.
He's a bad person.
I was so excited for my little ****ing hand, and you ****ed me.
Okay, this is what I want to say.
Chloe, you played this hand perfectly.
Okay, thank you.
I told you to play ace, queen.
You played ace, queen.
You hit an ace, and you got all the money in.
I did everything I was told to do by Phil, and I still ****ing lost.
But I did lose to the pro, Phil.
So, I mean, this is the perfect storm for you, except you just happened to run into ace, king.
The more and more that I play poker and the more comfortable I get in understanding what's going on here,
I actually really enjoy this game.
I think it's fun, and I think I could be really good at it.
I just told Phil that you told me how great he was and that your advice was to cheat and not get caught.
Yes, basically.
That's what I'm going to do.
Someone just hand me cards under the table.
I'll have Scott on the floor.
What?
You're amazing.
Kendall, if this modeling thing doesn't work out, you could be a horseback rider.
Like a real pro.
Your commentary is insane.
What?
I said your commentary is insane.
Good boy.
Have you been working with your poker pro?
What?
Your poker teacher.
There's poker teachers?
No one told me.
Well, do you know how to play poker?
No.
Then what are you thinking?
I don't know. I've never played. What do you mean, what am I thinking?
I didn't know anyone was getting a coach.
Yeah, what the f***?
I can't believe they all have someone that helped them and taught them and no one told me.
So that's pretty annoying.
Auntie Shelly was supposed to organize for everyone to have a teacher.
So you're blaming it on Auntie Shelly?
It's coming up really soon.
That's cool.
Well, now I'm nervous.
I have never played poker before.
Not even for fun.
So I'm going to have to just really wing it.
Maybe hope for a beginner's luck.
I think I'm sitting next to Cameron Azoff, so I'll just talk to him the whole time.
You know this is like a serious tournament.
You're a serious tournament.
Um, it's for charity though. It's a win-win situation, right?
It's a win-win. And you're just as cute as a button.
Yes, you are. Yes, you are.
Have you heard from Kim? How's she doing in Paris?
I'm so annoyed I'm not there.
I think it's a little emotional for her.
But she's good. She was having a good time.
I'm sure she's fine.
She's a boss.
Okay, I guess we're done.
It's money for the city of Hope.
I forgot to tell her I didn't know how to play poker.
Today is the big day of the tournament.
I don't think I'm going to win, you know, the hundreds of people playing at each table.
But I do hope that my sisters and my mom, that I can be the winner out of the fam.
I think that Kimberly is actually going to be really good at this game.
She's a really good bluffer.
Kendall, you look so cute.
Do I look like poker?
Like if poker were an outfit.
Uh, more like if Twister was an outfit.
Right.
Hi, guys.
I love when the family all gets together and does something fun and competitive.
Are you nervous?
No, I just don't think I'm going to do very well.
No negative Nelly.
What's your strategy today?
Just I'm going to be me.
Hey, guys.
You, I hate you so much.
I've never seen a body like this in my life.
I think Kim's entire life strategy is just distract, distract, distract.
No, Kim, you look unreal.
Let's go, guys.
Oh, my gosh.
And mine is patience.
Patience, patience.
Tournament players, it is time to start playing poker, which is what you came down to do.
Are you a legit poker player?
$5,000.
Oh.
$5,000.
Okay.
I feel really confident with the little system me and Phil have going on.
Shuffle up.
I'm going to be patient, do everything I'm told,
get other people drunk, and collect that money, honey.
I'm all in in the dark for charity.
Really?
Uh-huh.
All right, I'm going to go all in blind.
Relax.
Wait a second.
Everyone.
Five all-ins.
Everyone's really wild at this table.
Hold on.
Five all-ins on the first hand.
These folks are rebuying.
Six all-ins.
They're here for charity.
Phil, the real is you guys are all men, you guys are having a dick measuring contest,
and you all are like, why am I supposed to win?
All right.
All in.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, folks.
If you want to rebuy, it's your last chance.
I got to step it up.
I got to get some better cards.
So the first round is over, and in the second round, you can't buy any more chips.
So if you go all in, and you lose all of your chips, you're out.
You cannot buy in anymore.
Chloe, can I borrow some money?
No, it's about charity.
Buy the skin.
It is time to get serious.
May the best woman win.
I got some more money, Chloe.
Turn them over, everybody.
Oh, Chloe, shipper of the chip.
$8,000.
He's putting you all in.
Oh, it's so bad.
Motherfucker.
All right.
You better not take her out, Casey.
It's all right.
Okay, Kris Jenner is all in.
The board, jack, eight, eight, three, four.
Jack, eight, eight, three, four, with three diamonds.
Kris Jenner has a pair of jacks with a nine kicker, and this gentleman has three eights.
I'm kind of disappointed that I got knocked out.
I didn't expect to win, but I would have liked to have stayed in a little bit longer.
Yeah.
Just ran out of money.
Well, wait a minute.
Kim is all in, like mother, like daughter.
Kim, if you go out this hand, you outlasted your mother by one hand.
Okay.
The board is nine, seven, four, deuce.
Kim, show us what you have.
Kim has a pair of deuces.
I'm a little nervous.
I'm not going to lie.
Going all in, such a risky move because my cards were not good.
I was totally bluffing.
Against a pair of nines with an eight.
Kim needs a deuce.
There's two deuces.
She needs a king.
There's three kings.
The crowds are around my table.
Everyone's watching.
Everyone's looking.
This is like the crucial moment.
I'm either in or I'm done.
Last card, please.
She needs a king or a deuce.
This is so crazy.
I literally thought I was done.
I really needed a specific card to win, and I got that card.
What a rail they have.
Kim won.
Kim won?
She has no idea what's happening.
It's my sisters and I, neck and neck at the end.
Stakes are high.
I'm quickly running out of money.
I keep getting dealt really bad cards, and I hardly have any more chips left.
Lock it up.
Green on the river.
I did everything Phil taught me, but it's just not my game.
I'm out of the tournament.
Kim, Kendall, win, win, win.
1,000 to call.
So what does that mean?
I just get it?
It means you just get it.
Cool.
My sisters and my mom, who went and got experts, are dropping like flies, and I'm still here.
Go all in.
Kim, show us your hand, Kim.
8-9 versus King-Queen.
Kim's a 2-1 underdog.
Give us a flop.
It's a really good flop for the King-Queen.
Tyler is in really good shape here.
It's over.
Kim is going to bust out.
Kim.
Kim, thank you so much for coming to the City of Hope.
Let's give Kim Kardashian a round of applause, please, everybody.
We didn't win the entire tournament.
As I don't know if any of us really expected that we would.
Kendall, you outlasted Big Sis.
But we raised more than half a million dollars.
And, you know, just being all together and trying something new that we've never done before,
and knowing that it's giving back, is just a fun way to spend our weekend.
I'm going to take it off my bucket list.
Really?
Yeah.
Yep.
Last one standing.
I'm not surprised that I'm the last one standing.
That's just what they get for not including me and not getting me a teacher, too.
Thanks, guys.
Bye, guys.
