Great piece here by Brad Willis from PokerStars on Bill Klein, who finished second at the WSOP One Drop High Roller and donated the entire $2.5 million to charity. He has a lot more to say about poker in general in the piece as well ... very well done.

I like his chips too. Looks peach grey like the motor city quarters and baby blue with red and black spots in there.

Awesome of him to give like that when he is well within his right to hoard it to himself.

good guy, obv. and the $2.5MM is prob only a small portion of what he has given away over the years.

Awesome to see him do well; I remember when he played on HSP and played pretty well but took some horrific beats. He's mega-rich and from all I can tell, an all-around great guy.
