As for everyone who has been saying I can't do it, what if I can't. OMG, who cares? This is just something I have done to challenge myself. I think I have tried to emphasize that as this post has gone on, but what can yah do. I hope I can do it, I plan on doing it, so I guess we will see.

It is not that you can't do it. No one can do it when 8-tabling. The point of a challenge is that the goal is reachable through hard work. But when you throw a silly number out it makes me wonder about your basic math skill. Didn't you figure out that to reach your goal you would have to non-stop 8-table for 100 out of 120 hours?

IMHO, it can be done.

Would it be reasonable to assume 30-50% more games played in the continuous fashion as opposed to sets? Seems like that could get your there. Anyone done any math on the continuous play method?

I would agree that it's not a great idea though. I personally have stupid poker dreams after I play for 10-12 hours, let alone for consequtive days. I don't really like waking up thinking "damn, why did i limp off 1/4th of my stack on Lvl. 6??? Oh, I was dreaming!"

Best of luck though if this is important to you. I truly believe you can do it.

The math sounded close playing in sets, surely the continuous fashion he is employing makes it more attainable?

I don't know what seems so unrealistic about it. I avg 40 minutes per game. That is about 12 games per hour 8 tabling. Do that 12 hours a day = 144 games per day.

Do that * 7 days and you got 1008 games. It is a lot of work but it's definitely possible and if you have someone with a real good work ethic how can work 15 hours a day (I am not one of those people btw) that is 1260 games.

This makes me want to start my own challenge.
