“I couldn’t be more pleased to be associated with these two great organizations,” said Paul Fishbein, President of AVN. “My mother is a breast cancer survivor, but unfortunately, my friend Eileen Stein Jacoby died of this insidious disease at age 38. Her sister, Cheryl Herman with her husband Scott, have done an incredible job raising money for the Philadelphia organization named for her, and many people in the adult business have generously donated to the cause.”
“Now with a strong organization like b.a.b.e. as its partner in this venture, an important breast cancer group from each coast will benefit from this exciting and sure-to-be-memorable event.”
Adult Starlets Stormy Daniels, Carmen Luvana, Kelly Madison and Taylor Wane are all set to appear at the event to partake in the evening’s activities.
The main event of the evening, a Texas Hold ‘Em No-Limit Tournament with a $250 buy-in will hold a $5,000 prize for the first place winner. The evening will also feature “Babes & Aces” poker and black jack tables, with a $100 admission, a silent auction and a buffet.
“With AVN on the team, we are guaranteed a full house,” said Hrichison.
