    Many thanks for this TK, it is truly overwhelming.

    I couldn't have got the charity initiatives off the ground, without the willing support of all the guys involved, so a big shout out to them.

    The Sky Poker Community has always been so supportive, and an integral part of what we have achieved together.

    Thanks also for the kind comments that people have posted.

    I'd like to dedicate this to my brother Tim, as he was the inspiration behind the charity initiatives that I started. He would have been 45 a few days ago.

    I know, he'd have been so pleased that there are ongoing charity initiatives running in his memory.

    RIP Bro!

    Great tribute and thoroughly deserved. Since I started playing poker a few years ago I've never seen Graham be anything but gracious in both winning and defeat. A players candour that I look up too, and epically fail to emulate.

    Kind regards,

    Tim

    Nice thread and tribute to a deserved recipient. Top bloke Graham. Like Tikay says, gives a lot back to poker. His charity thread is what Sky Poker is all about.

    Extremely proud of you Dad for what you've achieved in Poker, but most of all what you give back to the game and the charities.

    Thanks for always being there!

    The nicest man on Sky Poker for sure - even when he takes my chips he does it with a smile - and on the rare occasion that I sneak some of his he's still got the same smile!

    Amazing poker player and amazing man xx

    Thank you Rose and indeed to all that have posted such wonderful comments.

    It really is very humbling indeed, and I am very fortunate that people see me in this light.

    I'm not perfect I can assure you, just ask close friends and family. :=)

    I have a lot to live up to now, I hope I can do so.

    Happy New Year to you all.

    I really do hope that 2017 brings you good health and happiness, as well as a bit of run good at the tables.

    I look forward to competing against you all in 2017!

    Cheers,

    Graham
