Tony G calls out on Lithuanians to help Ukrainians seeking asylum and settle safely

The Lithuanian politician tweeted his support for Ukraine and asked for donations to a support fund, promising that every single euro given will be used for the benefit of the Ukrainian people.

“Ukraine needs help NOW! I invite you to share this message in all the languages of the world! While Putin’s bombs fall on civilians’ heads, the situation becomes increasingly more dire.”

Poker Community Following the Crisis Closely

Since the Ukraine crisis took hold, the poker community has been following the news closely. Ukraine’s most successful player, Eugene Katchalov, has tweeted updates detailing his experiences from leaving Kyiv to escape Russian bombs all the way to arriving at the Hungarian border.

Tony G Pushing Huge Cash Games Over on CoinPoker

Given how much action Tony G has been getting on CoinPoker lately, it’s no surprise that he has some spare bankroll to donate.

The crypto poker site is revolutionising the niche and recently saw a new record for biggest pot in online poker—a massive $7,750,653, more than three times the previous record. Check out the replay below.

The $5,000/$10,000 cash games are running on a regular basis now, obviously helped by the ease of transferring such massive sums of cash in cryptocurrency form.

We might be on the edge of another era of nosebleed games that even eclipses what we saw 15 years ago.
