A reminder that the Montel Williams MS Foundation Pro-Celebrity Poker Challenge happens this Thursday, March 13, in New York City. Cipriani on 42nd Street in the City is the place and the arrivals start at 5:30 PM. I've photographed Montel Williams at various poker tournaments including the WSOP and can report he plays poker quite well so be advised to bring your A-game. Did you know Montel Williams is a retired US Navy Lieutenant Commander and he graduated from Annapolis?

Join him in his dedicated fight to slay the MS enemy of health. Even if you can't play the tournament you can still be part of the fight by bidding on some great stuff at the online auction, Thursday March 13, beginning at 11:00 AM ET. Use this handy link to pre-register as a bidder, then follow this link to the auctions at the appropriate hour Thursday. You'll find a 2000 Plymouth Prowler in mint condition, a New York Jets Ultimate VIP package for four fans includes field passes, and a really big Playboy Poker outing that includes all the amenities for your trip to the Playboy Mansion and a paid $1,500 seat in the Third Annual Celebrity Poker Tournament held at Hef's house.
