I have living proof that dreams do come true…… I have terminal liver cancer and was thinking if i could do one thing before then end wht would it be…….. and my answer was such along shot but doors opened unbelievably. I wrte into Full tilt poker where i play online and i asked if they would forward the email to gavin Smith who is a poker pro. The email basicaly spoke about my illness and about how Gavin Smith is My Favourite poker player . I had assked if maybe gavin sould play a cash game on line with me of course he would have to come down considerably in the buy in lol. I never thougti wuld hear back from them as they get thousands of requests daily. Well i did… and turned it up a nothch…. Thyey said that they forwarded the letter to gavin and that i would be hearing from him shortly, and tha i was being invited to go play heads up with him at the River Rock Casino during the BC poker Cahmpionships. Wowzerrrrrrrrrs . I received an email form Gavin shortly there after and he want to knwo if i live d by a airpor . So he flew me out from Trail BC to Van and had a exeutive suite reserved for me at the Casino, which by the way was beautiful. I was on cliud nine needless to say. OUr heads up game was great i chatted with him like i had known him forever and he si and was so easy to be around and such a great man with a good heart. I ended up winning our match and no he did not sandbag me lol. He then got a cash game going with all the other pros , myself and my other half and a good friend that was there to cheer me on , he paid our buy ins lol. So i not only had the heads up game i had the game with tonns of prso such as tiffany-michell brad booth daniel nagranue and more woooooooo hoooooooooooo the game was awsome this one was by gavins rules teee heee, so he basically in a funny way made sure all 3 of us placed lol. My friend came in 3rd for 300 doaars i came in 2nd for 500 and colin my other half cam ein 1st for 800 and a trip back to the casino in the presidential suite for a weekend with vip tickets to any show in the cassino we choose backstage passes and more…… this is truley amiracle for sure , how often does this happen? I thanks Gavin with all my heart and soul for the best time in my life and for meeeting all the pros thai so often watch on Tv and they inspire me even more today as they all were so down to earth and a great bunch.
Dream and ask you never knwo what may happen……………………
