Support poker in the The Dark Continent

    Just a brief reminder that this Wednesday is the VSO Charity poker tournament being run in the Westwood Hotel Galway.
    This event is to support Donal MacAonghusa's bid to introduce poker to deepest darkest Africa, a noble cause if there ever was one. His dedication is such that he is bringing his family to The Gambia for a year and he needs your help to get a tank together. His wife will be doing something to help out under privileged children to pass the time. I don't understand it myself but you know what woman are like, with their crazy hobbies.

    VERY IMPORTANT.

    If you cant make it to the event you can make a donation online.

    The smallest donation will help and be greatly appreciated.

    Would love to but given that the GJP festival kicks off the next day I wont be able to. I will donate though. Good luck to Donal and family. Hope they stay in touch.

    Try just calling it Africa instead of 'The Dark Continent', might get a bit more support, your not living in colonial times remember.
