you became such a active member of our club? A man living in England, with a sucessfull professional background, somehow finds our chip club in the US and becomes a member. (how and why?) Then he leaves a very good professional high paying career, and becomes a chip dealer. Then becomes very active in the club, a super vol. part-owner in major chip books, ect. ect. Now running for the BOD. I find it an amazing story, and really in my eye's, just a very interesting path. I think most of our members came to the club from different back grounds, we were casino fan's, gamblers, poker players, ect. I get the feeling you were not. You have a very big investment in our hobby, you spend so many hours, you have really given so much. I just can't figure out why? Surely your previous profession was higher paying. I know this is none of my business, but, since you are running for the BOD, I think many of us would like to know the answers to these questions. It really is a amazing story, so please shed some light to my questions. Thank you in advance to a response. Oh, one more comment, your quick Brit witt, is very enjoyable.
