Eight tables on two skins. Four 1st on one of the skins.

From a fellow 8-tabler with no grand slams ever: Yes! Congrats. (Don't listen to those 4-table haters if they tell you otherwise!) Now get crackin' on the holy grail!

No that's a "Home Run" If you started those 4 in order.
A "Grand Slam" involves 8/8 wins and has never to my knowledge been accomlished. (I am on a current quest for the grand slam the closest I have come is 5/8 wins (with 3 ootm))
Nice Job!

We clearly need an official body to establish clear rules for SnG-bragging.

i was under the impression that 4/4 in the same set was a grand slam...since you had the firsts all on the same skin, and thus the same set, it should count
8/8 would be the holy grail

ahh earlier i moved up from 11s to 22s, and started 4 tabling the 22s, instead of my usual 8 tabling escapades in the 11s. On my first four i went 7 1 1 1, by the end of the day i hope to be playing the 109s and killing them, since my ROI is so good.

I just pulled a Denny's on my last set of four: a second and three thirds

cmon dude, they got baseball in canada, so im not excusin this one. a grand slam is 4/4 first places when 4 tabling. the origins of the term "grand slam" comes from the american word used to describe a play in baseball in which someone hits a home run with the bases loaded. this is a play that is worth 4 points (or "runs"), hence the assimilation.
ps. i went 6/0/1/1 once at the 33s, and i also have done a 4/0/0/0 at the 22s.

yes, we have baseball in canada, but in canada we give eight runs for a grand slam, 1 run for a rouge and 2 runs for a power play goal.
best i ever did was 1,1,1,2,3,3,L,L
the 1,1,1,2 was from 1 of the sites and the 33LL was from other.
