Default Re: VIP email/offer for PPM V

I assure you PP will only do 30.

Last year I tried the 15k point promo for 10 people to be completed in 4 days. I hit 14,901...and was not offered a trip. (found out about the promo 12 hours after it started)

I played 15/30 BBJ mostly and some regular 15/30 tables. The people who won the trips like MicroBob (correct me if I am wrong MB) almost exclusively played the 10/20 SH games. If you want to win this then you have to play the largest SH games around. you will not be permitted much time at all for table selection.

How will that affect your win rate?
How much are you willing to lose in this pursuit?
Will you stop if you hit a $5K loss? $10K? ( I personally lost 10k in last years attempt. I was not good in tight games yet, and hit a bad run in the first 8 hours (-$5K)which affected my confidence for the remaining 50+ hours)
How will you feel if you are 31st.....and no trip?
Do you trust PP to take care of you in the event that things go awry in any way???
Do you have a buddy to help you?
How will you feel if that buddy loses your money? (mine lost $4k in 3 hours!)

Just a few things to ponder. From my perspective, last years attempt for me is the single worst experience of my Semi-Pro Gambling career (20+ years of Blackjack (mostly) Poker, Video Poker, Casino Whoring)
