I'm thinking of doing a 24 hour session in the near future and donating a % of profits to a charity.

 

Thought it might be fun to get some other people on board and hang in TPE chat while we grind.  The charity part would of course be optional, that's just my own personal thing.

 

Who's down?  I'm looking at you Marc Alioto!

I'm 100% in on both parts. I already got a charity in mind that I like. This is gonna sound harsh but most adults I have met with cancer got it because of decisions they made. It might not be cureable, but a lot of it is entirely preventable. That is not the case when very young children get it. The Aflac Cancer Center at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta does great work to get these lil suckas back on their feet. I wouldn't mind value betting some drunk calling stations at 3 AM to ship them some bread.

Riddle:

 

What is a poker player's favorite answer to any poker question? (Hint: It's also the name of a product that we're all gonna need for this session.)

ITS on!

 

Nicky Evans, Carlos and Marc Alioto joining the fun as well.  Nicky and Marc might not do the whole 24 but a big chunk.

 

We'll be hanging in TPE chat.

We made it!!!

 

so this was a blast, and I think that we will do it again sometime!

 

I actually thought I had ended the session slightly down…but I forgot about some swaps i had made which put me up $200!!!

 

So $20 will be on the way to the Triangle Beagle Resuce (a beagle rescue organization we foster dogs for).

It was great fun to watch, hopefully I can participate next time you do it.

 

Congrats for the unexpected positive side! 😀

I ended up -$250 after plummetting from a high of $300 over the last 3-4 hours. So Aflac Cancer Center for Children owes me $25 but I think I'll trade them a 50 dollar bill for it. I had an awesome time.
