    Keep it simple, going to take £50 and play NL10.

    I have no BRM, it’s just a bit of Friday fun.

    So just going to approach it like it’s my weekly poker budget.

     

    I can’t see this being of much interest to anyone, but if your going to read this journey of amazing poker play by me then I suggest you at least post to give me the motivation to win lots of money so I can buy my kids some xmas presents.

     

    No pressure on you but if you don’t post, then I lose motivation and my kids will go without this xmas.

     

    If I do really well then I may buy the kids a dog, but as dogs are not just for xmas I will have to win more money just to feed the dam thing. So this futile challenge may turn into a life saving exercise just to keep the dog alive, so do your bit and post!

    Good luck Rancid.

    So this is not the same as your challenge where you attempted to blow £50 as quick as possible?

    Hi Rancid,

    Just tell your kids that Christmas is a scam invented by Coca-Cola & they're lucky to have birthdays (that's what I'll be telling any future mini-jingles anyway).

    Gl.

    As insurance, buy a cat before you start down this path, that way you have something to kick when you donk your £50 away, or something for the dog to eat if it goes well, simples!

    Lol. 

    I thought I'd post so your kids get xmas presents. I'm not sure if this post will give you motivation or not but w.e. Kids need presents!!

    lol

    I think having a 6ft 40 y/old man turning up at your door carol singing would be too much for anyone to handle

    may get the kids to dress me up as a guy and go out for fireworks night and do penny for the guy, if I get really desperate.

    Lets hope for some Friday night freaky drunk people online tonight !
    Failing that I'll settle for IDONKU  turning up at one of my tables, hihi )

    buy a dog  for xmas lose your bankroll boxing day new years day eat the dog (one less mouth to feed )
  • edited August 2012

    .... Rancid, I know you posted this as a lighthearted and good intentioned bit of fun, power to your elbow for doing so BUT, I really wish that you would just go to the local dogs home and give a deserving dog an early christmas to your equally deserving children. 

    You know what they say about poker, "never play with scared money" and I think the whole community will be on the edge of their seats around christmas time if it looks like you are going busto......lol.....seriously tho, good luck........miaow.
