Nice to see..

Lots of poker players are doing things for charities," he tells contributing writer Robert Gluck, "whether it's giving money directly or participating in charity poker events which are becoming popular.

"The poker players with the new gaming bill have become so much more united, and it's not only with charity."

Negreanu singled out Jennifer Harman's recent event for the SPCA in Las Vegas as a good example, with even more top pros coming together because of that sense of unity, and the net benefits are being felt by charities everywhere.

"It's good on both fronts, because anytime we do that it's going to help charities as well," he says. "It's a great way to raise money and the poker community as a whole has really done a lot for charitable causes."

Daniel Negreanu himself was praised for his efforts, among them donating 20 poker tables, 40 decks of cards and 20,000 poker chips to a charity poker tournament in the name of Adam Pulling, a Western Michigan University student who died of cancer in 2004.

"Sometimes it's just something that seems to fit, that seems like a good idea. The Pulling people approached me and it seemed like it was a good cause."

so don't be so selfish then :P
