Title: Thursday Poker/ Cancer Research
Post by: shipitgood on May 21, 2015, 04:01:08 PM
Afternoon Blonde!

Tonight i'm going to be playing the following games, i'll be giving 10% (gross) of any winnings to Cancer Research.

I'm selling 50% @ 1.3

7:45 £11 BH
7pm Mayhem Freeroll
8pm Main Event £33
8:30 Mini £5.50
8:15 £11 BH
7:00 £22 BH
11:30 £11 BH
9:30 BH £11 BH

Total Spend = £104.50 @ 1.3= 135.85

I will sell 50% at 1.3

10% = £13.56 (with mark up), so for every 10% £3.11 will go to the charity.

The Extra .3% will go to Cancer Research.

It will raise a bit of money for a fantastic charity.

*Any prize money from tonights freeroll is also included within the above, but no weekly prize (from the freeroll).

It is really short notice, but if anyone does want to take part if you could send over before 7pm, thanks, Kev

A little confused? Are you effectively selling at 1.3 with the mark up going to charity?

If so I will take the lot providing I can bank tx.

Hey Craig,

Thank you very much for the stake.

I pretty much bricked everything and deregd the 9:30 game.

I picked up a few bounties, total cash is something ridiculous like £10.

I ran real bad, a lot of these games I normally final table for fun.

It was mainly to raise a few pounds for Cancer Research.

As such, it would not be right for me to keep the money you sent over today. If you can please send over your bank details and I will return the full amount, including mark up, to you ASAP.

I will make a donation for Cancer Research separately. 

And will also think of a better way of doing a fund raiser for the charity!

Hey Kev,

That is the game, also I can not accept your kind offer. Just stick the extras into the charity donation.

Next time we will get them. Bettsy x

Cashes from the games tonight = £110

I came 3rd in the 11:30 Game, plus a small cash in the other game.

If you can send over details and i'll send over £50 tomorrow.

Raised for Cancer Research, £15.55 from mark up, plus £11 cashes, plus £5.

I'll just round it up to £40.

Bit disappointing I didn't do better in the earlier MTT's, but still great to raise a bit of money for such a good cause.

Thank you very much to Craig for "sponsoring" tonight's efforts.

For simplicity / transparency I will probably just donate on someone's Justgiving page fund raising for Cancer Research.

Well done guys, great last minute gesture. Maybe with more planning in the future a few more of us could get involved both staking and playing. Something for u to organise Kev?

In, maybe a home game on Stars all $$ to the charity, bragging rights for the victor?
