All For a Good Cause...

Only just seen this thread. Very good luck. Will you be playing one table the whole time or multiple cash tables or some MTT's as well? Will try and remember to donate when I next get paid, you can always PM to remind me later if I forget. Good luck.

Thanks for the interest, Craig.

We will be playing on one 2p/4p table for the twenty-four hours (I think it's easier for people to see that we have been there for the entire duration that way!). Others will be joining us throughout the day/night, hopefully encouraging a few more donations along the way too.

I've donated a top up to get you over the £500 mark - just in case I don't get onto the tables on Saturday.

Best of luck with your target - I hope it's ok but I also posted your link up on facebook........

Absolutely, that is ok. Facebook may as well be used for something worthwhile, eh? Thanks a lot for the second donation as well.

I still have a few favours to pull in for some more, so watch this space

I certainly don't want to take money from people who can ill afford to give it up, but if you wish to donate the money on the table on Saturday... absolutely, you can do that. Thank you for supporting us

And thanks to Paul Jackson for further increasing the total a few minutes ago!

Hi mate,

Why don't you just come rail us, or play a few hands.

You can't give people money at the tables mate - passing chips (it's in the rules somewhere)

IDONKCALLU

A few of my begging office emails are beginning to show results - almost £550 folks!

LARSON7

Absolutely Amazing, just under £600 raised so far with just over a day to go.

Everyone has been really generous.

Slipwater

Haha - yeah, and as some of the comments on the JustGiving page suggest... I may have twisted a few arms to help us get there!

But as the title says: all for a good cause

LARSON7

Brian you have done brilliant, phenomenal effort.

All right, I'm off to bed (after a wee trip to Tesco for milk - can't get through tomorrow without coffee!) and I want to see the total over £700 when I wake up! Less than thirty quid will do it...

Night folks!

In Response to Re: All For a Good Cause...:

GL - As its a few weeks off I have some time to win some money to donate. I'll pledge 10% of my 200 game STT challenge profits - or a tenner whichever is largest.
Posted by Phantom66

I am afraid the tenner is still the largest - just made good on the pledge with the donation though

deadeyed

read this on my lunch break at work, just entered my donation guys and good luck with this on saturday. if i can i will look in on the table and maybe sit down to play for a while to make sure you are both still awake lol....this is for a great cause, i am sure this has affected most of us in one way or another and always puts poker into perspective....have fun.

Slipwater

Thanks guys, the donations you posted are very much appreciated, and because of you we have passed £700!
