Play cards with Wahlbergs for good cause

We heard the cast of “Wahlburgers’’ will be playing cards at the Tewksbury Country Club on May 17. The celebrity poker tournament will benefit the Mark Wahlberg Youth Foundation, and the prizes include an Indian Scout motorcycle, vacation getaways, and a seat at the World Series of Poker. The tournament is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. and end at midnight. We’re told that players will have to sign a release for TV, so it’s possible that scenes from the tournament may make their way into a future episode of the “Wahlburgers’’ reality show, which airs on A&E.
