do it 5 times a year, SNE baby!

5*8000*25 = 1,000,000 VPPs

Would be kinda sad if he failed the bet, and ended up playing 8000 SnGs in one month only to land at break even.
Sick amount of FPPs, though. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Playing this many tables, at bad times, he could fairly easily run -5%, lose the bet, and not be loving life. Hopefully he would quit if he starts running like that.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

He just started playing!

let's rock!

I go playing!

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

Gravy wont be able to play sets of 30 16$ turbo sngs like he is acustom to. He will have to play non stop for for like 12 hours a day to get this done. He wont be able to do more then 20 60s at once at a give time during most of the day.It makes this even sicker....

I cant imagine playing sng's not in a session.

He cant do sets but he can do continuous which is what he should be doing, sets just wont work for this bet.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

Am I too late to get in on this bet?

No offense space but I don't think you can do this 33% of the time.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

PM'ed. I hope I'm not too late.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

so does this include fpps or not?

this is going to be very difficult unless a huge volume can be played. im guessing with the number of $$ on the line SG will bust out like 14 hr days if he needs to.

i almost did this two years ago on party. running at 17.5% roi. but then i went to tunica and missed a week so i only made 20k. this will be tough in '07 though, gl!

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

so far so good! he can stop at any time (say after 1000 sngs with 42% ROI) as long as he makes 25k, right?

Yeah, his bet would have more equity if he was going for supernova elite or something (I dont think he is).

Well, SPACE, I know you gotta play like 18 hours a day now....but if you get a second let me know if you're taking my bet...? I'll up your odds to 2.4 to 1 and I'll put up $850 now.



And seriously even just attempting this is sick. I'm pretty convinced you could actually make supernova elite playing as low as $60 sng's

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

12:44AM MST I see Space is still playing. Does anyone have his current stats?

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

looks like 5% roi @ just under $500 thru 313 games in oct

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

$313 x $3 (5% of $60) = $939

I don't understand ...

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

tshot how is that played so poorly by the gravy? If anything limping preflop with aq is a poor play by his opponent.

It just seems to be at best a marginal edge to me ... in which case I feel preserving the 400 chips on the bubble is more valuable.

Also, I wish I read this thread earlier because spacegravy (although obviously a very good player) is giving away money.

sharkscope, last 12hours stats

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

Last 16 hours: 278 games ROI = -1% lost 213$

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

if he can keep up this pace of 278/day, this could be very close at a 5% roi.
8.5k sngs at $3 a piece.
something tells me in a month we'll know basically know your true roi [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

i think tshort thinks he should be betting his oesd on the flop.

i like how gravy played it with those stack sizes.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

No he didn't like the turn call apparently. I'm ok with it, meh.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge
 

According to sharkscope montly result thing he is at 341 games and has a 0% roi or so. He is basically breaking even right now. Maybe sharkscope didn't update itself fast enough?

What's easier grinding 1/2 6 max cash to try to earn 25k in a month or playing 60 dollar sngs?

-$100/340 so far.

That's pretty close to what I would predict for him playing that many tables w/no game selection. But also it seems like a lot of 2p2ers were playing with him yesterday and spitecalling etc. I stayed off the $60s he was on for the most part last night - not good tables. $114s were like twice as juicy last night. It may get easier for him if the 2p2ers get tired of harassing him.

He really needed to get off to a good start. If he's down money overall, that has to be pretty disheartening.
