    Abstract
    This article describes how Black Hat USA conference 2020 created a unique event for their attendees in their switched virtual meeting. This cybersecurity meeting looked for a unique experience since their event this summer turned into a virtual setting. So organizers and its sponsor cybersecurity company Rapid 7 teamed with the event company 'emc3' to implement the same atmosphere of Las Vegas where they were supposed to have a meeting. They created a non-cash-exchange poker site with a zoom setting that gave attendees the experience of Las Vegas. There was a virtual greeting from the professional poker player Daniel Negreanu, and even they prepared a trip to 2021 World Series of Pokers in Las Vegas for winners.
