General manager in a casino, had a go in a poker tournament and won the most after the split, which he donated for the fire fighters. Nice gesture from him. He sure picked right, giving that money to the fire fighters. According t him the other winners acted differently

I read about Gerard Butler that he will try to host a fundraiser, for people who lost their houses in the californian fire, and that he will try to get a million dollars from his friends. It's a good thing to help people with problems and this manager of casinos, proceed in a human way offering a sum of money to the firefighters. Congratulations for Gerard Butler, Robert ‘Rob’ Reid and all peoples who will help people affected by fires inclusive firefighters.
How is this news worthy? He will get a nice tax credit on this money so overall he won the same amount twice while giving it away only once... I would have done the same because it really was not that lifechanging kind of amount. Still, good for him.

This news counts for those who want to donate money. Many people who lost their houses in the California fire and they have no roof over their heads and they sleep outside. I refer to those who are not rich. At these times, people should solidarity and to donate money for these people beaten by fate. You agree with me?

I personally think he donates all prize money won from tournament because only one reason- it was only 2000 doolars. If this eij is two millions then 100 percent that he not donated all maybe 10 thousands or something liie this

Surely if this General Manager at two casinos would have won a tournament and the prize for the first place was two millions dollars he would not have donated more than $ 50 k or $ 100 k. This does not matter now but his gesture counts. People like him should exist all over the world. That is humanity and dedication for affected people or for those who help.
