Save the Date: “All In For Charity” Poker Tournament and Benefit Dinner

Liliane Stransky and Margie Engle

On Sunday, March 13, 2011 the Step by Step Foundation will be hosting the “All In For Charity” poker tournament and benefit dinner from 6:30 p.m. to midnight. The event will take place under the International Tent at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center in Wellington, FL, and will be hosted by both charity founder, Liliane Stransky and Olympic veteran, Margie Engle.

Some of the expected attendees to take part in the tournament include various Olympians such as Chris Kappler and Jimmy and Danielle Torano. Other guests expected to show vary from course designers Olaf Peterson and Anthony D’Ambrosio, to grand prix riders Angel Karolyi, Andrea King, Pablo Barrios, and Hillary Dobbs along with horse agent Roy Wilten, and Stransky’s Mission Farm’s own Hector Florentino.

Gaming Tables

Along with poker and food, “The All in for Charity” event will also have a live DJ for dancing, celebrity memorabilia, art and various prizes given out all night.

Tickets will include a catered buffet dinner along with a reserved seat at several of the tables like roulette, craps, and poker.  Guests are encouraged to purchase tickets prior to the event or at the door upon arrival.

Stransky started this charity seven years ago with a mission to help the lives of underprivileged children by offering a healthy and educational environment. All of the proceeds at this year’s event will help children in Haiti by providing shelter and medicine in efforts to stop the spread of Cholera.
