A number of poker tables have been donated to US marines stationed in Iraq by a gaming equipment company, it has been reported.
Randy Ying, who owns Rye Park, told the Arizona Republic he decided to give the present after being approached by Captain Zachary Webb of the Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron.
All three tables are emblazoned with the group's logo and are of a tournament-quality standard.
Mr Ying said: "I think it's cool that they risk their lives for us each day. This is just something I can do to make their time a little more enjoyable."
Poker has proven to be a popular pastime among soldiers in Iraq, with tournament organiser Matt Davies telling Bluff magazine that it is a great way for the army to keep morale high.
Rye Park has donated more poker tables to helicopter pilots in Texas in recent months.
