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-offers/10th-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?

Yeah! :D

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 :p


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!

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.

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

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

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.

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..

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.

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. ;)
