Celebrity Poker Fundraiser for One Step Closer Foundation



This weekend the Hollywood Park Casino in Inglewood, California sees the inaugural All In For CP fundraiser, organised to benefit the One Step Closer Foundation, a charity set up to help those suffering from Cerebral Palsy. Sunday will see 2006 WSOP Main Event Champion Jamie Gold, WSOP bracelet winner Jennifer Tilly, Oscar winner Ben Affleck, Emmy winner Sam Simon, talk show host Montel Williams and a whole host of other stars shuffle up and deal. What’s better though is that the tournament is open to the public, allowing those who want to brush shoulders with the stars the opportunity to do so. As well as the poker tournament, there will be a silent auction held during the event including a special treat for poker aficionados: a Doyle Brunson autographed cowboy hat. Once again, this is a great example of the poker community showing their support for another worthwhile cause – Bluff Europe wishes all the One Step Closer Foundation all the best with their work.
