Now this is the kind of story I like to read about . WSOP event #14 winner Eric Brooks is donating his $415,856 in 7 card stud winnings to charity.
Two thumbs up to Eric Brooks !

I think this is becoming a bit more common now and damn good news too.
For example, Tony G is reknown for donating 50% of all of his tournie winnings in this way - it just shows how much these guys must make from the Poker scene (mostly playing high stake cash games in Russia methinks!). _________________ Keep the faith - don't toe the line

So true Maron . And I really feel that it's all due to Barry Greenstein setting the example for all the pros to follow. _________________ Happy people don't always have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have.
