miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Well here goes nothing.

In the next 5 days I will play 1,000 SNG tourneys. I will start with a $120 bankroll. Every time I hit 30 buy ins for the next level I will move up. So when I hit $330 I will move up to the 10+1's and so on. I will post the results as I go along. Please feel free to encourange, nit, or whatever.

My wisdom teeth get removed at 8 this morning so I figure I should be good to go at 4pm by the latest.

Good luck to me!

Hope you have health insurance cos you're gonna need a shrink in about a week. Good luck though!

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Don't do this, it's a bad idea.

You will be unhappy.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Well, I'm going to do this, and I hope I will be happy. I'm pretty sure I will be ok.

you are my hero if you can pull this off without being severely traumatized. good luck!

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

How many tables will you be playing simultaneously?

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

1000 in 5 days ... you're crazy, I can't even sustain 60 a day let alone 200.

But good luck, I think you will need it.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

between 4 and 8 at a time. 8 at the start of the day but as time goes on I feel like I will cut down to 4. Also the second a table goes down, I will replace it.

I don't think you will make it if you only 8 table. If you average 40 minutes per SNG, 8 games will take approx 40 mins. 1000/8 = 125 sets. 125 sets at 40 minutes per set is 83 hours. That's 17 hours a day.

Yep. I had assumed OP was 12 tabling and thought it was a stretch but 8 tabling this is highly, highly improbable. Best of luck on however many you play, though.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Well, I'm going to try my best. I'm gonna be all kinds of messed up because of my wisdom teeth so I figure this will keep me occupied. I could play for 17 hours I feel like. I've done it live and at least I have a goal. So I guess I will keep you updated.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

you have one of these, right?

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Also remeber that whenever I bust out in one, I will right away start on the other. I won't be playing for a full forty minutes in each SNG. I feel like I can do it, but we will see.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

REDBULL! Lol. That made me laugh.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

8 tabling usually averages at about 10 tables/hr so it would take 100 hours.
20 hours/day is more like it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

This challenge is impossible 4-8 tabling.

Good luck though.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Well, good luck. I think you'll need it. I can barely even stay awake for 17 hours a day. It'll be interesting to see how high stakes you get up to. Also how your ROI will differ from your normal ROI. Don't lose your mind.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Well sir, goodluck in your quest. But how the hell can you stare at a screen for 20 hours a day? Your eyes are going to be little pieces of goo by the time you've finished, not resembling eyes at all. I guess though with the profits you make you can spend it all on laser eye surgury after. Let us know how it goes.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

This wouldn't only be tough mentally, but physically too. Have you never heard of Korean men who play an online game for XX hours in a row, and then die on the spot? Of course you'll get some sleep (although I bet you won't sleep that well) but you should still watch out, I think. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'd buy some more monitors and 20 table, and then have breaks, eat good food and sleep. Then at least you would live through it without a hate for poker. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Well I didn't think I would have quite the response I have gotten so far but thanks for the well wishes. I'm off to get my wisdom teeth out and then I'm gonna take a nap. Play will begin at 3pm eastern standard and I assume go till 4 or 5 in the morning. I guess I will make 4 hour post updates. Sound good? Talk to you guys later.

Gonna slack off the first day? Only 15 hours? You'll fall behind. Haha, I'm just kidding. Seriously, don't kill yourself doing this. I bet 99% of 2+2 posters would not be able to pull this off. Only one that comes to mind is raptor.

I am very interested in the results! Now lets hope you don't start with a 30 buy-in downswing.

Forty minutes is an average some go well over an hour

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Not to rain on your parade, but there's no chance you're going to pull this off. I will take a prop bet from anyone for any amount of money that says you will not complete 1000 SNGs in 5 days. It would be the easiest money I ever made. 100 SNGs in one day will make you insane, how do you suppose you'll be able to do 200 a day for FIVE days? Why not try to do 500 in 5 days. That's still going to leave you with some serious brain malfunction if you actually completed them, but it's much more realistic.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

u do realize that if you never get above 5s the entire time, that the extra 50 cents you are paying in rake by playing 5/1 instead of 10/1 will add up to $500?!?

do u really wanna give up $500 for free?

if u are seriously gonna play a large amount of sngs, play 10/1...or go to a site that has 5/.50

don't just throw away up to $500 like that...


and do u have rakeback on your account? if you play 10/1s, that's $250 in rakeback alone...


no rb+5/1s = $750 in free money you are throwing away

if you are gonna do it, do it right

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

good luck bub

if your results suck, keep in mind that heavy medication may have you acting a lil loose aggro.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

I dont think you gonna make 1000. 500 would be much more realistic. But however you do I wish you best luck and I think this will be very interesting [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

20 hours of 8-tabling SNGs 5 days straight while ripped on Vocodin!!! get in bed with some pornos, a playstation, and a big bag of dope and stay there for the weekend... it will be much more fun, and probably more rewarding.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

You won't make it if you play any less than 8tables. Running 8 tables continuously will still take 18hrs a day. Playing 12hrs a day for a few days straight is pushing it. You will have to literally play every minute you are awake. Maybe a couple of minutes to shower (my showers take 30mins), and eat while you play, crap while you play. 1000 in 2 weeks woulda been a better challenge. If you do it, then good for you I guess.

I'm willing to make a bet, but not on this. On the weekends, I am completely free. From 7 pm Friday night to Monday morning 7 am. How many SNGs do you think I could do/how much would you be willing to bet? (I would at most be 8 tabling)

This challenge is impossible for anyone who naps.

Cut it in half man. For your own sake. Either way, good luck man. Good luck.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

1,000 SNG in 5 days
200 SNG in 1 day

1 sng - 1 hour (i'm just averaging, i know its prolly closer to 45-50 min)
4 tabling - 50 hours, impossible
8 tabling - 20-25 hour, possible, but not sustainable
12 tabling - 16 hours, doable but you will go insane
16 tabling - 12 hours
20 tabling - 10 hours (max you can start out doing because of your bank roll)

Drop your requirements a bit, try 100 a day. And I think you may want a bigger bankroll.

Good luck.

COMMENCE PLAYING!
 

Guys,

First off, I do have a bigger bankroll, so if I lose the 120 I will be ok. I just decided to do that to make it interesting. I'm actually going to start out at the 10+1s because 5 dollar SNG just aren't going to do it. Also, this is just something I came up with to help me pass the time after getting my wisdom teeth taken out. I plan on doing the best I can but this is not life or death. I'm going for 200 a day but if I can only make 100-150 it's ok. Well I start now.

Re: miami32\'s 1,000 SNG challenge in 5 days
 

Hahahaha... this is a joke right?

There's no way you can pull this off if you're only 8 tabling, unless you for some reason don't require sleep. Even then, I'd still bet against you.
