GaF Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 At last - I have wondered when poker rooms would get on the "Chris Fergusson" bandwaggon. Page 46 of the July Poker Player Mag - with www.winunited.com :unsure They will give you €1 for free and you have 24 hours to increase that to what you can ...... prizes for top 10 (1st gets €1000). You can not make a deposit - if you do, you are ineligble!!! And you only get one shot, and only 24 hours!!! Anyone know what network this is on?

Galronix Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Re: 24 hour challenge - €1 to ??? Not a bad idea. a 24 hour PL event. Thought we did that at the meetups. :unsure :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapdash Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Re: 24 hour challenge - €1 to ??? Sounds fun, but it's not really a "Chris Ferguson thing". Playing to be in the top ten over a day is very different from playing to safely grow your bankroll over a long period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveO Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Re: 24 hour challenge - €1 to ??? If you played a heads up match a day for a month (say 30 days) starting with a penny and then doubling up each day, if you won every match you would arrive at the end of 30 days with the grand total of $13,281,500.16(my pound sign isn't working) may be slightly out on the calculation. Anyone think they're capable of winning 30 heads up matches in a row! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAC Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Re: 24 hour challenge - €1 to ??? I'd be wary of collusion on this, wouldn't be too hard for a bunch of friends to make $200 each on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 Re: 24 hour challenge - €1 to ??? Not a clue :unsure As DAC pointed out - worried about "collusion", but I hope the poker room make an effort to look into the winners early games.... Once you get over a certain threshold, I imagine you can move on..... Couple of hundred dollars? Also depends how many people give it a try :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
