The MattBates March Challenge...
This may actually be pretty close.
If you check the tourne lobbys after 20 mins, Matt is usually out , or in top 5 .
He will crush you on FT , wins and cash won though.

On paper I am crushed, but that's fine because Rocky was meant to have been totally out of his depth against Apollo Creed too. However, if/when that happens, I will take it on the chin. Of course, that means I therefore have nothing to lose J
Matt – I know you have your regular MTT grind, and I’m not talking about interrupting that at all. You go about your games as usual.
Rules:
1) We both register for the same three tournaments every night.
2) The same tournament – as a part of this contest – cannot be entered two nights in a row.
* Whoever goes deeper in each tournament receives one point.
* A bonus point is awarded for an outright tournament victory.
* If Matt or I bust first in a tournament, a bonus point is awarded to the other guy.
* So, technically, there are nine points up for grabs each day... although this is highly unlikely.
* At the end of the month, the player with the most points... well, he’s the winner.
I will start a thread, updating the points every day.
And just so we’re clear, in case anyone jumps onto the thread to shoot me down, this is meant to be fun.
That'll teach me.
I have to say slip mattbates does actually run like god! but behind that he is a very very good player.... Il be watching this with intrest ! gl sir............
If I fancied something easy, I'd have thrown the gauntlet down to Orford
All right, here is the suggestion: For one month (I was thinking March, because the UKPC interrupts February) I want to challenge MattBates to a friendly MTT contest. Yes, this is on the back of him flopping the world against me last night in the Mini Roller, but you know, whatever... I’m not bothered where the motivation comes from.

I know, Matt, you will take it as intended. Besides, perhaps you will learn a few things along the way

Anyway, I have added a couple of extra 'rules' in the opening post, which I think will add a bit of interest, and Matt, if you're still up for it, March is probably full steam ahead.
