Hope for Peace and Justice teams up with Pocket Rockets tonight for their Hold ‘Em High for Hope poker tourney and mixer. With over $400 in prizes, the event benefits the anti-bullying campaign, the Safe Schools Program. Raffles, silent auction, drinks and food make the evening an event. And don’t worry. Non-poker players are just as welcome. Hey, it is a mixer, also.

For those who love to hate A-List: Dallas, you’ll either be sad or glad to see the show’s season come to an end tonight. And by the previews, boy does it. Taylor Garrett needles at the community with his friendly exchange with conservative pundit Ann Coulter. Castmate Chase Hutchison is naturally infuriated but then also has to deal with Garrett lip-locking on his sorta beau Levi Crocker. As the season comes to a close, I’m fascinated that we never got to see the incident that happened at Jack’s Backyard. Remember this whole to-do?
I tweeted a couple of the A-Listers about what to expect on tonight’s episode. Hutchison was kind enough to reply.
“Tonight’s episode is definitely going to piss a lot of people off, including myself,” he tweeted back. “Everything comes to a head tonight; relationships, politics, friendships… And having Ann Coulter being part of the show was enough to make my blood boil with Taylor. But I do like that very different views are being shown, as much as some of those views disgust me. It will be worth watching for sure.”
Fellow reality star, Drew Ginsburg from Bravo’s Most Eligible Dallas chimed in as well with his response to tonight’s episode.
“Supporting Ann Coulter is a like a Jew supporting the Nazis,” he tweeted.
The Hayyy List is hosting a watch party tonight with cast member James Doyle at Axiom Sushi, or you can seethe or snicker on your own. Either way, here’s the preview clip after the jump to get you going before tonight’s episode.
Hey, DJs love animals too. In tonight’s Spin 4 a Cause, the bi-monthly DJ event benefits The Humane Society. With DJs Joshua Welch and S.O.U.L.Jah on turntable duty and Jeff Roose hosting, music, food and good will all comes together. The best part? Pets are welcome to join the event in the patio. Just be careful with Fluffy around all that sushi.

Spin 4 A Cause is a new twice-monthly event that will support local non-profit chapters and organizations. The first Spin will be held Wednesday, May 25 at 6 to 8 p.m. at Axiom Sushi Lounge at ilume.
Sue Wyll will be the celebrity DJ and the evening will feature DL Disco Dave. No cover will be charged and a happy hour menu will be available until 7 p.m.
Proceeds of this first event will benefit Equality Texas.
The Wednesday night event will bring together community leaders, music and food to raise awareness and funds for local non-profit chapters and organizations. The first beneficiary, Equality Texas, is wrapping up a successful legislative session. The passage of anti-bullying legislation that passed capped the most successful session since the hate crime law passed in 2001.
Wyll raised millions of dollars for the LGBT community. She served as a Black Tie Dinner chair and worked with the OutTakes film festival, Chic Happy Hour and is currently raising money for the Resource Center Dallas capital campaign.
The non-profits will receive proceeds from bar and food sales.
