World record attempt mtt at PokerStars

#1 10th November 2011, 10:24 AM

Not sure if this has already been posted(cant find it) but for all non-US players Pokerstars is attempting a world record tournament on the 4th of Dec, as part of their 10th anniversary celebrations.
http://www.pokerstars.co.uk/special-...h-anniversary/

buy-in is $1 total, winner gets guaranteed $50k, but the blinds are sh*t, 5 mins for each so turbo. maximum of 200k players, and prizepool is $250k.
anyone gonna enter?

#2 10th November 2011, 11:04 AM

Yeah!

I'm entered all ready, going to be one right big shove donk fest for sure. Definitely someone running good is winning this as opposed to skill

Nice they aren't charging any rake for this.

By the way, your from the UK arent you? A decent proomotion for UK&Ireland players too!

yeah i saw that, hope one of us takes it down, nice result for a UKer if they do. You even get free entry if you reload for this using a special code(cant remember what it is lol).
Im in torquay, just like blackpool, but no tower, but we've got palm trees and sunshine lol!

#4 10th November 2011, 12:21 PM

I'm in it, but damn the satties to it are just awful all 3 satties to it I finished in 3rd all to bad beats

Certainly would be nice indeed!

Yeah I just deposited $10.00 to get the free ticket lol.

HaHa....I'm thinking Torquay is somewhat more classy than bpool that's for sure!

I saw them, thought they wasn't worth the hassle and I'm guessing they are profible but would have to put in some volume and for what it's worth, I don't think I could be bothered, just buy directly in. I think a 20c buy-in (top 2 getting paid) would be much more better.

#6 10th November 2011, 12:44 PM

final table only paid would be fun

#7 10th November 2011, 12:55 PM

Certainly worth a shot but I assume it will be played like a freeroll especially at the start. Good luck to everyone who plays.

#8 10th November 2011, 7:18 PM

I guess I'll get in on this donkfest. Should be no different than the .50c and $1 nonsense that I usually play.

#9 10th November 2011, 9:56 PM

deposited 10 for the free ticket guess i will give this massive donk fest a go lol

#10 10th November 2011, 10:07 PM

Played about 5 sats now and haven't won one yet. Think i might just pay $1 it's not really going to cripple my BR lol. The standard is so awful.

yah this would be good for a 'last longer contest'. Maybe a prize for first one to get KO'd too?

#14 12th November 2011, 10:30 AM

Last longer gives a bit more fun to the game, so I'm for it, try and get a decent amount of people this time as I assume there must be a ton playing it.

Be good to get like 20 people in the last longer thing..

#15 12th November 2011, 10:33 AM

OK, if theres a mod about can I ask you to add last longer bet to this in the title. And I'll keep an update of people who wanna do it. if thats cool with everyone.
JUst type 'Im in for the last longer bet' in this thread.
1.kerouacsdog.
(Im in)

edit, and maybe a dollar prize for the first one out?

#16 12th November 2011, 10:42 AM

IMO I'd just start a new thread in "get a game going", for the last longer bet

Deposited $10 to get the free ticket. Bonus code is WORLDRECORD if anyone needs it. This game is gonna be a shocker. Be a good day to bink. To win $50k out of this would be sick.

I really wouldn't bother with the satelites. Agree with ram that they should have 20c ones with top 2 getting the seat instead. 10 players with 1 seat awarded is pointless.

thanks bud, yeah i did the same, deposited $10 to get the entry, which was nice!

edit: bluff, you know that if someone from uk or ireland wins, you get extra bonuses right? lets take this down!

Ya, iirc top 5 UK/Ireland finishers get a ticket to the $10m gtd. Sunday Million and the rest of the top 100 UK/Ireland finishers Sunday Storm tickets.

On top of that, if someone from UK/Ireland takes it down, there's a $10k freeroll for all UK/Ireland players that took part. Pretty sweet deal. I'll take it down for us so we can play that $10k freeroll.

thats superb bud. I just paid for a CCer to play, but he declined the last longer bet.
thanks buddy.

#32 16th November 2011, 6:31 PM

It'd be cool to get a big group of us playing it so hopefully that'll add 5 more.

I'll almost certainly be in this. Delighted to see you putting people in BluffYou, that's great of you to do. I'll add my name to the last longer list, but I can't be 100% I'll be in atm, certainly should be though!
