Finished with 4418 VPPs on the first day of 10 tabling $1/2. About to start DAy 2.

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?

[/ QUOTE ]

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

[/ QUOTE ]
Strictly speaking, the word “over” should not be used there where the meaning is “at least”. Also I would prefer to see a preposition at the start of the sentence, before “July 1st”.

That said, it is an exaggeration to call the statement “extremely badly worded”. Its basic meaning is clear.

5 hours played; 2000 VPP here. I will reach the 400k level, and try to reach the 500k level. I do, however, have a full time job, a wife and 2 kids, and want to have some life outside online poker, so the 500k level might be a stretch.

I'm kind of with Daryn on this one.
I thought it was fine.


Some of the Party promotions were the extremely badly worded ones.
Where they say, "Earn 30k points and you CAN win a trip."

Ummm, does that mean that I actually WILL win the trip, or that I'm put into some drawing where I MAYBE I CAN win the trip.
Party had a lot of other REALLY badly worded stuff (and probably still does).


Stars has a couple things I think can be worded better. Lots of people get confused between VPP's and FPP's and I think Stars should work more to make that easier to distinguing for example.


But this phrase that people are complaining about seems easy enough to me.

At this rate you will easily make it - even taking two months off!

gogoggogo.

Things are looking a little less promising at $100nl 6m (fast), however supernova seems within sensible reach - 2K vpps here so far... need to put in the hours, I am getting approx 0.4vpp/hand, more than I first guessed would be the clearance rate. that'd be 2.5M hands a year then, lol.
