Hi all,

Psst! Wanna easy shot at landing a seat into tomorrow night's main event?

Listen up!

All you've got to do is record the biggest profit in a single timed tournament between 7pm till midnight tonight.

That's it!

It's a really fun challenge and you can give it as many goes as you want.

The prize for the player who beats the rest tonight?

A free seat into tomorrow night's 12K Sky Sports Bounty Hunter! (which we'll be covering on the live Sky Poker TV show)

Here's what you'll need to do-

As soon as you've cashed in a timed tourney tonight- cut and paste proof on to this thread and then calculate your Return On Investment (ROI) below- like this:

Machka705011£17.62
£400 Gtd 30 mins

Buy-in £5.50

Prize- £17.62

Profit= £12.12  (£17.62 - £5.50)

divided by the buy-in (£5.50)

= 2.20

 multiplied by 100 to give a percentage

= 220%

So, it doesn't matter how low the buy-in is, or how long the timed tournament goes on for, because only the ROI is important!

You can keep recording scores all night. I'll just take the single best individual result from all entries as the winner at midnight.

Last time Spornybol took the honours with a solid score of 504%. 

But you should post- even if it's only a small ROI because you never know how many people will enter and, as a result, if you're lowly score might turn out to be the best one.

So, do you think you have what it takes to be the champion of timed tournaments?

Only one way to find out!

I'll be on the site from 7pm myself playing timed tourneys and Mastercash tables till midnight.

See you there and good luck!

RICHORFORD

PS- Can anyone beat my record of 1226%? Yes, I posted that bad boy last week and I truly believe that not only is it an all-time timed tourney website record but it will never be beaten by anyone. 

Prove me wrong!

;-)

spornybol

Lol- that's the excuse I always give people when I don't attend an SPT- I want to give others a chance. ;-)

Nice work last week mate- hey, you won an extra £11 on top of your timed tourney win!

And if you change your mind about entering this week's comp, you know where to find me tonight. On this thread!

I should be about tonight Rich so I will be giving it a bash.

I'm not able to play the BH tomorrow if I win it, so I may have to donate it to 2nd place if thats ok.

To be honest, I would rather like to beat your all-time-timed-tourny record, now there's a real challenge

See you at the tables.

ps. Any chance you can get them to pop another timed tourny in between 7.25pm and 8.20pm Tonight? As it always seems such a long wait when your doing the challenge.

kennybad

might give a couple tournys a try

scouse_red

think I might give this a go tonight too, although I've already qualified for tmoro's BH so same as Trev will have to donate to 2nd if by some miracle I manage to bink it. lol

Cheers guys and thanks Trev for the leaderboard.

I've spoken to Tikay who says it's too tight to get a tourney set up in that gap for tonight- but he'll get on to the boffins tomorrow so it should be in place as from next Wednesday.

As for my score of 1226% I tell you right now- that will never EVER be beaten on this site. Never I tells ya. I absolutely slaughtered that game, aided and abetted by a straight flush and quads along the way and because it was a 60 minute game there was hardly anyone left in the field when it finished.

I think the key to a big score is a long game, so the money is shared out between fewer finishers. Also, you obviously have to outright win the game and accumulate a massive chip lead over the rest of the field.

So, easy really. lol. Over to you... ;-)

Hmmm... Shall I come and rail/harass Richard again this week?

I have satellited into the double-stack tonight, so you'd think I'd have better things to do... but yeah, I'll be there "encouraging" you Mr. Orford.

Please...Please....Please! - Don't encourage him

But please do come along and give it a go - if only to try and beat his "All-Time-Timed-Tourneys-Record".

You know how he likes to keep reminding us lol.

How to Work out Your ROI % (Example)
Prize		=	£22.50
Minus the Buy-In  (£5.50)		=	£17.00
£17.00 Divided by the Buy-In (£5.50)		=	3.09
X 3.09 by 100		=	309.09 % ROI

RICHORFORD

1st game of the night and my all-in pocket jacks are outdrawn.

Excuses? I had a screaming baby going off in my ear at the time.

No further mitigating circumstances required, your honour.

So no score from me thus far- next up, the 7.25pm...

unknown_username

Well if it had been a "Last Longer" Rich, I would have won - But nothing to record in the 1st one

ajmilton

AKs against AA Ace comes on the flop he goes allin i call ..hence no roi for me .. the night is young tho ..plod on

PenFifteen

Was chip leader until quite late on, but inspired by Mr Orfords post, pressed on and, well, ......

£3.30 buy in

PenFifteen

968.75

34

£1.46

I would work out the negative percentage, but I suspect it may not win the prize.  Still, onwards and upwards!!!

( Is there a prize for the smallest percentage Rich? )

RICHORFORD

No joy in the 2nd one for me- limped into a hand- tikay would have me shot.

Then donked off all my chips with bottom pair. 

Didn't play that one well and so no score still from me.

No score yet from anyone though.

First ROI to come up will be the main event seat leader!

Lol at this Adrian.

I have to say though (and it is extremely unllkely given that we have another 4 hours to go) but if no-one else manages to cash in a tourney then you will win with a negative ROI because at least you have an ROI!

So, er, good luck!

EvilPingu

Will have a go in this once I've crushed* the main and mini doublestack.

* may be slightly exaggerating.

Good luck mate!

RICHORFORD

Third time lucky!

Cashed in the 15 minuter £5.50

RICHORFORD

2950

£14.74

ROI therefore is £9.24/£5.50 x 100= 168%

EvilPingu

Sigh. Is a -100% ROI the winning score atm?
