Very Interesting Promo

[housenuts]

Little more than a month after introducing the "Maui – Jackpot Sit ‘N’ Go" promotion, which challenges customers to try to win five consecutive single table tournaments for a $15,000 grand prize, online poker room, Noble Poker, has upped the ante.

Starting August 1, Noble will begin a new Sit & Go (S&G) challenge, offering up an astounding $1,000,000 to anyone who can win seven $10 S&G’s in a row. Like the Maui promotion, there will be specially designated tables for these tournaments. Any player who accomplishes the feat will be required to e-mail Noble with details of each tournament, and all seven S&G’s must be played within a thirty day period.

In addition to the million dollar grand prize, Noble will also award smaller, yet still sizable, prizes to those who fall just short of the goal. Win six tournaments in a row, and the prize is $75,000. Five and a row earns a cool $25,000. And anyone who places in the top two spots in five consecutive tournaments will win $300.

All of this is on top of the normal prize money for each individual S&G.

could this be done? would it make it worthwhile playing there?

wouldn't it be worthwhile to get about 50 people getting paid about 20K - taxes for a weeks work and just dump chips to one guy. Mix in a few losses when he has a huge lead but it seems plausible.

As was discussed for the previous promo, it would be extremely difficult for anyone to win 5 in a row at any level. 7 seems about impossible, but hey, if people want to try. The $300 for finishing top 2 in 5 sounds good though.

I am strongly considering giving it a run one night when the cards arent falling right for me on party.

This is easy money if you do the following.

Gather about 50-60 friends and play 7 in a row. Then u stage it in a way that one person wins them all. The easy part is actually winning 7 in a row, the hard part would be to cover it up and make it look real.

Yeah..I'd take a run at that, i mean, million dollars is an ass of money for a few days of good cards and good plays.

The problem is this, even with a 14% 1st place rate you are about a 1 in a million (not exaggerating) chance to win 7 in a row. Thats why they can do this.

25K for 5 in a row???

Tempting. Very, very tempting. I might even spend August trying.

edit: on second thought, probably not worth it with that 3 table rule and crappy software, but I bet some current Party $10 players here could crush this.
