The ORFsuit Challenge...Do you think you can win with the worst starting hand in poker?

RICHORFORD

easy....

gotta get there before Ozzie tho... (he might win all 5 seats lol)

great idea Rich!

RICHORFORD

And why not, eh?

It's just a bit of fun for £1.10. :-)

I'm now going to be taking part in Wednesday night's Scotty77  TSP-Lite League Game which kicks off at 7.30pm.

And I issue you with The ORFsuit Challenge

The first FIVE players who win a hand in that tournament with the worst starting hand in poker: 7-2 offsuit and, this is the important bit, post the hand history on this thread as proof, will automatically be awarded free entry into a TSP Classic of their choice. 

So, think you're up for it? Should be fun. Register for the game, let me know you're playing on this thread and then pray for 7-2 offsuit to go to war with! Remember, it's got to be offsuit!

Disclaimer- you take The ORFsuit Challenge at your own risk. If you exit the tournament as a result of getting jiggy with that hand then don't come crying to me! Perhaps best attempted in the early to mid stages 

;-)

All mine Aaron, thankyou very much. The cheek of it!

In fact, I haven't actually run it past anyone official, so I might just receive a short, stern email tomorrow morning from head office titled "FIVE TSP Classics? That's coming out your wages, sonny jim".

That's why I put a cap on it at five- I originally decided to give a prize to everyone who managed it, but then I got palpitations at the thought of 48 people demanding £11 seats!

I'm actually rather hoping I only get one or two winners, but who knows? Does anyone have any educated guesses as to how many people on average will win a hand with 7-2 offsuit in an MTT the size of the TSP-Lite?

So it gets folded round to you in the BB 1st hand or so (and you happen to have 7/2 os) and you post the hand here and win a TSP Classic seat??.....really?

Machka

When playing to showdown not many. 

When jamming preflop because you can win £11 for £1.10 a lot!

You wil be lucky if you get qne winner!

Your money is very safe!!!

Look, I'm not saying I've completely thought this through, am I? Lol.

That said, why not? It still requires players to realise what's happened and actually post it on this thread. I think there may be fewer winners than we think. Or should I say, I hope there may be fewer winners than we think? :-)

(On a completely unrelated note, I reserve the right to reduce this number of free seats by an amount up to, but not more than, 4 next week!)

I'm actually with you on this one, Wynne. I think we may get one winner. Be interesting to see how it maps out now.

Ah but, my young apprentice, have you factored in that when somebody jams in the early blind levels, then it will have 7-2 off written all over it and other players will call with alacrity?

And in the late blind levels, players won't want to gamble with 7-2 off because the top prizes are bigger than £11?

Mohican

Can't wait to see the poker clinic/area 51 full of 'how can he call with 72 off' threads.

Ah but, wise master (lol), have you considered how many runners in this tournament actually frequent the forum and have a clue about the ORFsuit Challenge?

pomfrittes

  Nice idea Rich, i am in.

Eyeman

I think 7 2 will win at least 100 hands in the first hour tonight. Quick posting guys. Have you hand histories open, and the CTRL_C CTRL_V at the ready!

splashies

I'm in! Il prob just open shove if i get dealt it early!

If anyone else on here open shoves in first few levels, I'm snap calling with 8 high :P

It should br exciting though , encouraging people to shove with 72os.
Loooking forward to it, I am defo interested now , having slept on it!
I'm in!

unknown_username

Ok - Put me in.

I reckon the 1st 2 entries should go to the first two players that win with 72 off suit and the other entries should go to the best made up hand with 72 off suit. Just to make it even more interesting.

SolarCarro

7 2 off now there is a challenge!!

Count me in!!
