Join Tampa Bay Lightning stars Vincent Lecavalier, Martin St.
Louis, Steven Stamkos and a host of top celebrities as they go

Pediatric Cancer and Blood Disorder Center at All Children’s
Hospital. Other teammates scheduled to participate at this

And it’s not all just hockey. On hand will be champion boxers Antonio
Tarver and Winky Wright, New York Knicks forward Jared Jeffries, former
MLB outfielder Gary Sheffield, former NFL place kicker Martin Gramatica
and Cornerback Donnie Abraham as well as poker pros Joe Sebok and former
WSOP Champion Jerry Yang. Not to be outdone, also on hand will be your

While the real winner will be Vinny’s pediatric cancer center,
you too can win some of the more than $45,000 in prizes from
the tournament & casino night and even a WSOP main event seat
that is up for grabs. In addition, the celebrities will be
competing for a $10,000 donation to the charity of their
choice for the “last one standing'”.

during the first hour of play to guarantee you get to enjoy the action for
a small donation. As an added incentive, any player who knocks out a
celebrity will earn a “bounty” of autographed memorabilia.
