Inspired by MXRider and Casper each coming up with individual initiatives that support COLOMBIANITOS, I have found one of my own. I will freeroll them for my next 100 pending bonus points at Absolute Poker. I will chase off 100 more bonus points there, earning $25 in bonus and a little rakeback on the side. Any money I make from poker play during that time will go to COLOMBIANITOS.

Here's hoping the kiddies do well this week!

Unfortunately, not good so far. 60% complete playing mostly $3/6 FRLH I am down about $120. Crying or Very sad I am going to credit colombianitos with $21 though, because I played TT from UTG really poorly one hand, so I won't count that one against this little quest. Embarassed (So, subtracting that hand from the results puts me down about $100.)

My table selection has been good, but getting two-outtered on the river twice will tend to jack up your short term results. Rolling Eyes

Hmm, I wonder if Columbiantos is going to cover your losses for you Bull Wink

Good-luck in getting unstuck!

Maybe I'll do some charity type thingy if I have a good idea or get the motivation.

Nothing like 6 straight tables of positive results at NL 100 to make finishing in the black a possibility again. Very Happy
Think I can continue running at 19.4 BB/100 on those tables? Shocked
I am only down $20 with about 30 points left to earn (they accrue more slowly at NL 100 as the $10 minimum is not reached as often. I win a lot of $6 pots.)

Hmm, let me see - that sounds a bit like 3/6 FRLH at Absolute at the moment. Where were you playing again? Rolling Eyes

Complimenting me on your first ever post bodes well for you!

Welcome to ITH!

Unfortunately, it did not work out for the kiddies. I got pasted coming down the stretch, and finished down about $80. I fell behind early last night when my flopped middle set got stacked by a straight. I'll see if I can post the hand in the NL section.

I might try this again in the future because I wanted it to work out for the charity - does that make it short-term results oriented?

Better luck next time kids!
