Hello everyone.
My best friend Clint has Cerebral Palsy, he is 27 years old and we are trying to raise money for him to play in the All-In for Cerebal Palsy Tournament in Las Vegas December 10th.
I have been trying to organise sponsorship for him and his family to get flights, accommodation and other expenses.
I have contacted poker organisations and also some poker pro's but awaiting to hear back.
A little bit of info about Clint:
Clint was born on October 30th 1983. He was three months premature and was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy shortly after.
Clint started walking when he was two years old with the help of callipers as he walks on the tips of his toes instead of his heels.
He has had seven operations to try and fix his legs to help him walk better.
Those were at Ages 2, 3, 5,10,15,17 and 19.
As clint is unable to work, it wasnt until he found poker that he found his true calling in life.
He now is the life at the party at our local poker events and is always great to have on the tables, and he has become a very good poker player.
He has met Joe Hachem, Chino Rheem, Mel Judah, Grant Levy and a few others which is on his facebook page as well.
He was also in the Australian Poker Weekly June 10th edition (Page 14)
More info can be found on the Facebook page for Clint:
