Let’s Unite for Mike—The Power of Poker Family!

Poker Family,

Mike McConniel has been a long-time Host and league representative in the South Dakota FPN League scene for years—serving as a Regional Representative, hosting games at Woody’s &Thirsty Duck, and keeping players informed and organized in both SD & Nebraska. Mike is known for always supporting the community and for his love and dedication to the game. Whether it’s a fun evening at the tables or a charity tournament to support a good cause, Mike has always been there to lift spirits and help others.

Right now, Mike is facing a tough challenge. He’s in stage 4 of NASH (nonalcoholic steatohepatitis/liver disease) and is in need of a liver transplant. His wife, Cynthia is raising funds to help cover Mike’s medical expenses, travel for doctor appointments, and the lost income while they both are unable to work.

We certainly want to help support Mike at this time while he is on a liver transplant waiting list.

Mike at the FPN 2024 Nationals Tag TeamEvery contribution makes a difference—whether you donate directly to his GoFundMe (see below), share the link. Locals can attend a private fundraising event on Saturday Jan 25, 2025 as well at Woody's Pub and Grill in Sioux Falls at Noon.

Thanks for being there for Mike—he’s always had our backs, and now it’s our turn to have his!
