Default Gildwulf\'s Play-Every-Hand 100 Hand LIMIT Challenge

BBV,

I am laying down a challenge for all of those people willing to blow 20k on blackjack. This will be much more fun.

The rules:
-you must play 100 hands of LIMIT poker
-you must play EVERY single hand to the river
-you must have a PFR of over 40% and an aggression factor over 1
-any limits are allowed (.25/5 to 1 billion dollars/2 billion dollars)
-this must be in a single session
-graphs and stats must be posted for you to compete in this challenge

The awards will go to:
-most amount of money lost
-most amount of money won
-highest pre-flop raise
-highest aggression factor
-highest limit played
-most mathematically improbable suckout
-biggest pot generated

The prizes would be BBV related titles (to be decided by mods) or $5 a category (if I'm feeling generous and this really takes off). New categories can be approved as well- these are just the ones I thought off the top of my head.

The contest ends March 31st.

Gentlemen, start the race for the worst player on 2+2!

The odds of this happening are pretty slim (especially in the .5/1 games which I imagine most will play) but if you post the hand then it will not be disqualified.

Oh yea, both 6-max and full-ring are welcome.

Advantage of six-max: you play closer to optimally and will potentially lose less money but you won't make as big pots as if there are 8 or 9 people in the hand.

Also, if you raise and everyone folds around that counts as 1 100% VPIP and 100% SD hand.

Dang, I should have thought this out a little more. I think .25/50 is the lowest we should go otherwise everyone will do it and it won't be as much fun/risky. Let's say it needs to be .25/50 and above.

I wish we could alter it to just 100% vpip. I started doing it, and calling down some of these hands is just plain hard to do.

Edit: Plus some people would come out ahead if we just had 100% vpip.
