Spin £5 into £200 at Mastercash - Can You Do It?

Lambert180 · December 2013

Yeah, I'll give that a shot

Do you want to turn £5 into £200? Well here's your chance!

At this stage, it's a proposal to check the level of interest...

Sky are looking at starting a new promotion giving you the chance to spin up a small amount at the cash tables into something that could really come in handy over the festive period.

What Have You Got To Do

Start with 50xBB at 10NL, spin it up to 50xBB for the next stakes up, move to that level and spin it up to 50xBB for the next stakes up and repeat for the following stakes 10NL > 20NL > 50NL > 100NL > 200NL.

So....

Sit with £5 @ 10NL, when you have £10...

Sit with £10 @ 20NL, when you have £25...

Sit with £25 @ 50NL, when you have £50...

Sit with £50 @ 100NL, when you have £100...

Sit with £100 @ 200NL, when you have £200.... you win!

The Rules

1) The challenge must be completed at Mastercash tables

2) Players can only 1-table Mastercash tables during 'a run' so that Sky can verify it was completed correctly.

3) No top ups allowed at the tables during your 'run'.

The first 5 people to complete the challenge and leave their 200NL table with £200 will get a £33 Bounty Hunter seat on top of their £195 profit!

Please post on here if you think it's a good idea and would give it a shot.

Winners

1) BBMike
2) MrsDuck

(3 seats left)

You can reload but from the £5 level, it's a spin up innit

You gotta go all the way from £5 to £200

We could all do it if we could just top up £25 at 50NL over and over until we eventually got it to £50 one time. Then did the same again at the next level.

ok

hhyftrftdr · December 2013

Yeah, I might give it a bash Sky Paul.

Erm, I mean Lambert180.

Slipwater · December 2013

Haha - nice edit of your original response, rancid

Can you move down in limit if you lose too much at one? ie. I make it up to 50NL with £25 but then it goes down to £15, can I sit back down at 20NL? Also what if I'm sitting with £24 at 20NL and then get a treble up. I now have £72 not inc rake. So do I have to skip the 50NL level and go straight up to 100NL?

I reckon I can do it. Don't know if there is enough incentive though!

You have to play all of the limits from the start and spin up on that level to the buy-in for the next.

So, if you were to sit down with £5 at 10NL, crush souls and get to £2000 before leaving, you'd still need to fire up the next limit with a £10 sit down

Sky_Dave · December 2013

Re: going down from the initial buy-in, it's either stand up from that session and go back to 10NL or grit your teeth and get that grind mojo going

Sky_Poker · December 2013

Like Dave said, each step would have to be done seperately in the way setout in OP (on mastercash 6max tables).

If people think its a good idea we'll help support it starting on whatever date Lambert sets. As usual with any promo or competition, it's entirely voluntary and anyone trying to bend the rules would be exempt. We'd also help Paul by verifying any winners.

Sky_Poker · December 2013

Oh and because it's on Mastercash tables, we will look at showing some on TV.

chicknMelt · December 2013

I might give this a go...

there was a story about lex velhius doing something similar...except his was $300 > $140,000. in 2 nights!

of course, it was gone again pretty quickly. He posts himself in this thread to confirm and give details...

I think the picture above says it all (False start)

I'm sure you can do it again though Gazza!

gazza127 · December 2013

Well it sounds as if Lambert could make the start date today then its all good! Right??

Sky_Poker · December 2013

TBF - we'd need to make sure everyone started at the same time (with a bit of notice) so there was no unfair advantage.

gazza127 · December 2013

Ah well.... just bust 50nl anyway.

Pfft! There is no way gazza could spin up a fiver without spewing it away before he hit two hundred anyway. I say let him at it

Haha. Too right!

Got up to £35 quid and went for one big hand to get to the £50 mark and it backfired!
