2 min read
Phil Galfond will run a 24-hour charity stream featuring many big poker names.

Phil Galfond's new online poker site Run It Once has announced a 24-hour poker stream with a star-studded lineup to raise money for Sinai Health and StrongMinds charities.

The stream will take place on the RIO Poker Twitch page and will kick off on Saturday, May 11 at 3 p.m. EST with online legend Ben "Sauce123" Sulsky on the controls, and will wrap up on Sunday with Galfond himself for the final two hours.

Worthy Causes

All of the rake generated over the weekend on Run It Once Poker will be donated to the above-mentioned organizations. In addition, they'll be collecting donations from individuals who'd like to contribute to the causes. Run It Once Training will match these donations up to $5,000 and all funds raised will be split evenly between the two charities.

Sinai Health focuses on cancer research and treatments, and StrongMinds addresses mental health, especially among depressed women, in Africa.

The stream will be an opportunity to watch some of the best players in the world grind online at the relatively new online site. Plus, there's sure to be plenty of entertainment as well as educational value to go along with some RIO community building. Here's a look at the schedule and lineup:
