    Nice to play against you this evening Graham. I've enjoyed playing against and typically losing to most of the competitors on the leader board over the last year or so.  I've learned a lot from you all and hope to develop my game sufficiently to beat one or two of you occasionally! Anyhow, I've had a decent evening today and managed a FT in the £50 £3,500 BH and won the £50 £2,000 BH.  So as a gesture to Graham for setting this up and thanks to you all for the lessons learned playing against you, I would like to donate £50 to the cause.  May I suggest £25 to Graham's charity and £25 to the overall winner. Best regards Matt

    What a delightful post!

    Very kind of you Matt! Thanks again mate and I'm sure we'll be seeing plenty of each other at the tables.

    All the best! GL at UKPC if you are going!

    Cheers Graham

    Almost got some "Tournament Wins Shield" points today, but not quite.

    2nd in the £55 BH and deep in the mini when AA<TT (rivered Ten), so not to be, but hey, can't complain.

    Profit for 2015 now > zero, I'm coming after you guys!

    Cheers, was a fun night tonight, plenty of final table exchanges with Matt Bates (He finished 4th in the £55 BH). So I came out ahead of him this time., but I'm sure he'll be after revenge!

    Wishing all competitors a good weekend at the tables!

    Cheers Graham

    Don't mean to be a pest Graham! It would be good to see the actual updated spreadsheet on the opening post :) Cos when you write go to the last page of thread it only applies until a few others post and it's quicker and easier to view if the table is on the first page. Hope to bump into you in some more BHs soon, have a lovely weekend and flop well xx

    Hi Mrs D.

    I've thought about this. However, I really want people to read the thread.

    So you are correct, it will not always be the last page, however, I want to keep the interest going and make sure that posts don't become dormant.

    So I thought a good compromise, would be to notify people via the opening post, but still add the updated spreadsheets to the end of the thread, for the very reason that I want to generate interest in the posts, and not just the tables.

    Hope this makes sense, as always, I appreciate your feedback, look forward to seeing you on the tables soon.

    G xx

    Mrs D.

    I have had another thought.

    Going forward, when I update the opening post I will also write in there the total that has been pledged at that point in time. So people can see the "Number" straight away, but will have to go to the subsequent posts, for more detailed information.

    Cheers Graham

    Lol Graham, you're very sweet!!
    I promise you people will read this thread wherever you put the spreadsheet, as it's a fantastic thread!
    But it's your thread you make the decisions :)
    I've been thinking carefully about how to support this, will be decided by the end of the month lol
    Happy Saturday! x

    I called it yesterday. I knew Matt B would be out for revenge!

    Final table of £55 Speed BH saw Matt B, Solack, Nutter5932 and yours truly, battling it out.

    Ended up Heads up between me and Matt B.

    I was firmly put in my place by Matt, and he  takes a deserved 2pts towards the "Tournament Wins Shield" and another tenner goes to charity.

    This makes the total: £1,645

    Great job guys!

    Matt Bates after his brace of £55 BH, moves into third with 4pts. Conor (bearlyther) slips to 2nd place on 9pts.

    Upon reflection Mrs D, I decided that your are right. (I wasn't sure how the edit of OP worked), but as I can "replace" previous spreadsheets, going forward I will put the three spreadsheets on the OP.

    I will replace them weekly, and occasionally on an ad-hoc basis, with the up to date versions.

    I will start doing this on Thurs 22/01/2015.

    Silly me, you're a woman. Of course you were right! :=)

    Thanks again,

    G x

    Hi all, I have just spoken with my son Gary Carter (Limp2Lose)

    He's decided to change his £50 sponsorship of me, and to pledge the £50 as a competitor instead.

    He will be representing "The Samaritans"

    He's a profitable player, but mainly only plays £5.75 and £11 BH's, until he can increase his bankroll.

    In place of his sponsorship of me, I will sponsor him £50 to go to his charity, "The Samaritans".

    I will update the spreadsheets accordingly, however the additional £50 brings the total pledged up to £1,715.00!

    Welcome to the affray Gary! Good Luck son!

    All the best,

    Dad

    Thanks Adam! Yes it's been quite a start for a lot of the competitors involved in this challenge.

    I can see it is going to be quite a battle for all concerned. The winner will have certainly earned it!

    Maybe I'm destined not to get any "Tournament Wins Charity Shield" points. :=(

    2nd again in the £55BH (£2,500 G)

    Not complaining though, still a decent result. 

    Some good battles with Ryan Spittles (Scotty77) and David Watkin (Wacko90) who both cashed in it, with David taking 3rd place. Well done mate!

    Congratulations to David Watkin (Wacko90) who won the £55 Speed BH last night, earning himself 2 "Tournament Wins Shield" points in the process. The £10 donation now brings us up to £1785 pledged.

    Also well done, to Ross McConnell (RossMc) who finished second in the same tournament.

    Good luck in the big tournaments tonight guys.
