I'm way behind you but I'm on pace to do it.

4279.

I was very cranky by the end of my session.

i picked up 3677 today. no way in hell i get there.

EDIT: assuming the rate at which i earned VPP's today will remain the same throughout the year, i need to play 708,186 hands this year to get there. this promotion is absurd.

It beats a job.

8000 vpps here.

Heavy grinding definitely is tough.

One of the toughest parts is enduring all the bad beats and still keep playing (and playing well)

My natural urge is to take a break after that 3rd 2-outer hits takes a huge stack off me, but I gotta keep going...

Is that Limit? If so that is amazing!

Can you provide any details? Hours played? etc.

You guys doing this SN elite chase at low limits have my full sympathy and encouragement.

When I played at this kind of pace for a little less than 2 months at True for a WSOP seat, I was a little burned out at the end of it.

What I did then was like a mile run comparing it to you guys doing this marathon at Stars now!


gogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogogo and finish!

July 1st your Supernova VIP status will expire unless you haev earned over 100,000 VPPs in 2007.

[/ QUOTE ]

This statement is extremely badly worded and is very confusing. Does this mean that I must earn 100,000 VPP in the first six months to maintain Supernova?

are you guys serious or is english not your first language?

so is the carrot they're dangling at the end of it.


Still pretty sure I won't be making it though. Especially with my down-swing to start day 1 induced partly by myself by playing too many tables and by AA and KK losing to 52o and 85s. Awesome!!

Another lesson learned is that I apparently run better when drunk than I do when hungover.

4300 VPP's on day 1 though. Not horrible.

But I can very easily see myself cutting this short and back at WSEX or just trying for 300k or 500k.
Or perhaps even trying FT a little bit more.

We'll see hoe it goes.
