    Luke has asked me to post this here as when it comes to computers he's strictly "one-finger-one-thumb-keep-mooooving!".

    Despite all the commotion recently and his obvious business setting up a new club he has committed to training for and competing in a Triathlon in Chicago.

    He is looking for sponsorship and all proceeds will go to the Children's Hospital, Crumlin, a very worthy cause.

    If anyone is interested in sponsoring him then please pledge money here or approach me or Luke individually. I will collect money and hand it over to Luke if you dont have a chance to see him yourselves.

    From all at Boards.ie, Antesup and GreenJokerPoker, I wish Luke the very best in this (mad!) endeavour and pledge to sponsor him myself.

    DeV.

    Thanks Dave,you would think the site admin would not forget the small details such as dates....I would say its a case of two many disco biscuit's back in the early 90s. ;)

    never touched 'em (honestly!).

    Anyway, there is no deadline in that I'm sure Luke will accept donations after the fact.

    I hope people will find it in their hearts to forgo one tournament or even SNG and donate the entry fee or something like that.

    Deadly,

    Pledge +1.

    Some monstrous amount of money like €50 (something along those lines Dev).

    Next time I see Luke or yourself.

    Fair play to Luke and you for this one.....

    Yeah i was talking to Luke in the gym during the week and he's training like mad [could think of other words] and is looking great, after loosing a good bit of weight too.
    Luke was telling me he has to fly out 6 days after the opening to do this event but is thinking of holding a charity game when he returns, i'd like to wish him all the best with this as its for a very good cause and i'd also like to donate something too *will give it to Luke or yourself Dev when i see you*
