Hi guys.

Do you play cash? Are you prepared to give 26 minutes for THE MOVEMENT CENTRE on 26th of the month?

As part of a push to get to £2K, I am playing 26 minutes of cash starting now. (5.06pm)

50p/£1 spin is the table

If I make a profit it will go to THE MOVEMENT CENTRE via the David Williams website below:

Any of you cash game players fancy doing something similar and dedicate profit from a 26 minute period from one of your tables to this great charity?

Whatever stakes you want and "giving up" after just one buy in is fine.

Post on here if you fancy it with your start time and table and then follow it up 26 mins later with the result.

    Well that proved to be a decent 26 minutes for THE MOVEMENT CENTRE.

    I had some major run good and got £80.96 profit:



    Also, whilst I was playing, I had a call from my parents saying that they would like me to donate £20 each on their behalf and there is the £25 from the heads up comp as I lost five games in total following my unceremonious 3-0 thrashing at the hands of @madprof .

    Making a total of £145.96 (Rounded up to £150)

    I am hoping a few of you cash players will come on board, as we try to get to £2K before the 20th.

    After that, this is something I am going to do once a month (26 minutes on 26th of each month), so that we have a way of keeping the momentum going for The Movement Centre throughout the year.

    It would be great if others could do the same, either now and/or on 26th of each month.

    No need to donate unless you make a profit in the 26 allocated minutes, it's the attempt that counts.

    Doesn't matter what stakes you play, large or small, every penny helps, so don't overstretch yourself, 1 buy in is enough.

    Please do post on here if you are up for this!

    Thought I'd flag this up to some of the cash game grinders, would be great if you could participate. 26 minutes, one of your tables, once a month is all it would need.

    Donate what you win on that table in that 26 minutes. No profit, no donation needed.

    Would be great if any of you and/or some others could get involved.

    Just thought I'd bump this out there in the hope that some of you guys may try 26 minutes of cash on 26th as part of the 2.6 challenge for The Movement Centre.

    Still hoping we can get to £2K:

    https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/my-2-6-challenge-ba58a66d-0581-446c-9a77-64679f0b5ad4

    Would be great if you could participate.

    Just post on here when your 26 minutes starts, what table and then post your profit/loss after the 26 minutes.

    No profit, no donation, it's the attempt that counts.

    Any staking level is good, every penny counts.

    Many thanks to all who have donated so far.

    GL if you participate!

    OK, well it has just gone midnight on 26th May, which means it is 26 minutes of cash time in aid of the 2.6 challenge for @QUICKFEET 's charity The Movement Centre.

    I'll be playing a 25p/50p Spin Up table. Come and rail if you are about.

    No good today I am afraid:



    Here's a video with some hands from my 26 minutes of cash today. A great lesson on how not to play poker, and a bit about the initiative:

    It would be great if we could get a few of us to do this on 26th of each month.

    Surely you guys can do better then me!
