Well done pokerstars on Haiti fund

[sos_egg_n]

Just a quick one to say i was very impressed with pokerstars quick action in regards to donating for Haiti following from there disaster aswell a doubling any donations made i also figure that many of the donkeys they have on there should donate as surely they would get more time and fun out of there money just figuring out how to donate : )

This is not related to poker but loved the golden globes where george clooney arranges a telethon for Haiti and drew barrymore is blarting ridiculously for winning a globe......good to know everything is kept in perspective : )

hi all

by some very rough calculations at least $1.5 million has been raised by poker players and poker sites matching donations ...
