swampster Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 Re: WIN $500 A DAY SPONSORSHIP! FREEROLL 25th May if it's anything like the one a guy at work is on, it'll be $500 a day loss limit to play on GrandSlam poker (BadBeat's iPoker skin) playing either cash or SnGs. BadBeat take half of all profits but of course if you lose there's no risk. You'll be expected to play a certain number of hands/games a month plus you'll get weekly mentoring seshes from a pro via Skype who will watch you play on TeamViewer. There are sometimes live seats available to BadBeat trainees too. If a PLer takes it down I'll follow their progress in the mag each month.

GeordieGaz Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Re: WIN $500 A DAY SPONSORSHIP! FREEROLL 25th May wow, sounds like an unreal prize! :ok just a reminder that this is on tonight at 8pm. There is 23 reged and I have counted at least 15 PLers out of the 23, so quite a good chance of a PLer taking it down! :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philossify Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Re: WIN $500 A DAY SPONSORSHIP! FREEROLL 25th May Wow - I was very lucky to beat Duncan head2head for this. Sorry dunc, must admit I'm not a big fan of tournies with such an unbalanced prize structure. Anyway thanks to all the lurkers for their best wishes :clap. As has been said I cannot believe there were only 24 in this ..... a bit of me is expecting its all a hoax (I thought that of last years Everest deal too) and I'm gonna wake up with a hangover and find its all a dream :tongue2. My first decent win of the year ... must have been saving up all those bad beats. I wonder how it all works is it profit per day (each day starts anew) or profit over a period - whatever, its going to be fun! Once again apologies Duncan for the h2h beat, but I think you did something similar to me last year :ok ... and (of course) a massive thankyou to Jon :clap:clap:clap:clap for his role in this - I owe you a big drink :cow:cow:cow:cow:cow:cow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
