Charity Check is a new segment from PokerNews that will feature the charitable giving in the poker industry monthly.
Robbie Strazynski, founder of Cardplayer Lifestyle, is calling out poker pros while making his own loops around the track for charity.
His campaign, the Running Well campaign, was started in 2015, initially pledging $1 per kilometer run.
This year’s campaign is kicking off with a new idea: a 1,000 kilometer charity poker challenge where he will run 1,000 kilometers and donate $1,000 to Kids Kicking Cancer by the end of the year.
"There's a lot of value in having the discipline to work hard all year long toward a charity fundraising goal,” Strazynski said.
