Wealth managers Alexandra Lebenthal and Michelle Smith know when to hold ’em and know when to fold ’em, and they host a quarterly women’s poker club to show off exactly how good they are at high-stakes betting. Among their fellow poker players, who find Maserati of Manhattan a more relaxing and pleasant staging ground than Vegas, are Guest of a Guest founder Rachelle Hruska and Gotham editor in chief Samantha Yanks … Meanwhile, Mikhail Baryshnikov hosts a private cocktail reception for “The Art I’ve Lived With,” a gallery show of his broad collection of largely Russian art.
