Rules:
- All times refer to ET(PS server time).
- All hands played from 9/01/2013 00:00 until 9/31/2013 23:59 count.
- 20K hands minimum.
- Only hands from 4nl and higher will count.
- All hands at FR/6max/HU cash games count (as long as game is tracked via HEM or PT).
- Must be positive for the month. Winning is winning imo.
- Losers will send bets to an escrow to be split among the winners.
- "Noob" posters will need to escrow via RayRal.
- Must declare whether you are in or out by September 3, 2013 23:59.
- Once you are in, you are in. After September 3rd no one is allowed to withdraw from the bet without valid reasons. (No lame excuses.)
-Again, read that one above one more time. ONCE YOU DECLARE YOUR IN, YOU ARE IN. You can't declare in, lose over 5k hands, then declare "out" by the 3rd.

NEW RULES
1. Can only enter 2 categories
2. If you break profit at any number of hands past your declared category, you are safe for that level (ex: being in for 20k hands and losing after 20k but finally going positive at 500k hands. You are safe.

This seems interested, should be a good read for sure. Can't take part at the moment but definitely will be keep an eye on how everyone proceeds if you get the interest for it.

lol so basically 40/50k not running. And it'd probably be cheating to enter the 20k given I'm almost halfway there already.

Ok question for all, how does this work exactly? I mean it's a stupid question (But I honestly have no clue), so could someone plz fill me in..

Assuming I went in with the 20k hand group for $20 than exactly what, happens? I mean Assume I don't reach my goal, than what? Assuming I do reach my goal, than what?

I glad someone else asked, Maybe me and naruto are stupid but how does it work if you hit your goal.

As far as I understand it, everyone who hits their goal and is in profit shares out the initial 'buy-in of all those in their category (x number of hands) who either didn't do the volume or who didn't profit.

So if two people out of five succeeded in the 40k hands category, they get $100 each and therefore have profited by $60.

Correct me if I'm wrong here.

Thanks for letting me know, is this only for cash grinders?

I didn't participate but will have over 50k hands easily :)

Anyway, I don't get the whole escrow thing. If most people play PS/FT then it is easy to just do player transfers, no?
