Default PokerRoom Sit N Go Promotion

Looks like this could be a good deal for the high volume sit n go players.

LABOR DAY SPECIAL

Work your way to the top!

Score points from playing Single-Table Tournaments during September 3-5 and earn your place in a $20,000 Added SnG!

Join in as we reward hard work and skill! For each real money SnG tournament played between September 3 and 5, points will be awarded to the top finishers:

10-Handed Win: 30 Points
10-Handed Runner-up: 10 Points
5-Handed Win: 15 Points

Note: The point distribution is equivalent for all buy-ins.

At a leaderboard (will be available when the promotion is running) you will be able to follow your own score as well as the top ten scores. The leader-board will be continously updated and you must be logged in to view it.

At the end of the promotion the Top 10 players that have earned the most points during the three days will be awarded tickets to a $20,000 added Single-Table Tournament. All Top 100 finishers will receive a PokerRoom.com Beanie. Make sure that you have updated your postal address!

That's quite the difference between 10th and 11th place.

10th place= Entry worth $2,000
11th place= Pokerroom beanie

I agree, hence my post.

I'd rather have a kick in the head than 11th.

But at least if you earn enough points for 11th, chances are you've done quite well at the S&G's and thus won a good bit of money.

Silver lining, silver lining.

Anybody actually gonna give this a go? I'm thinking about it...although I'm wondering how much you should play, or if it's worth it. I'm guessing 16-18 hours a day of straight Sit n going. *puke*

I saw this promo in my email box today. I'm not a tourney player, but I think you'll basically have to 4-table 24/7 to make the top 10. I don't think the hardest of the hardcore 2+2 carpal tunnel is capable of this.

Has anyone ever tried "teaming" with other players to win one of these promos? Say, two guys pulling 12 hour shifts under the same username, or maybe 3 guys playing 8 hour shifts, etc? I know the payout maybe isn't worth it, unless you've got a nasty tourney player on your team whom you think could win that final table of burnt out multitablers.

Just an idea I was curious about.

This was talked about when Party did the free millions cruise promo and it was believed that this was being done.

The difference is even larger than that because it's really:

So, you've pretty much gotta put together a team if you want to win this promo. I believe it. I've seen some of the other daily points promos, etc, and I imagine it's the same deal. The amount of points some of these accounts can put up are just unreal.

That said, this promo is even more lame than the paradise million dollar freeroll.

I wonder if I can buy one of those beanies at the pokerroom store.
