Comments
Inspired by the DYM streak challenge from a while ago, we had an idea...
SUGGEST A CHALLENGE!
So please post on this thread for your idea of what a good challenge could be for players at Sky Poker. We will pick our favourite suggestion (by Friday 20th) and the person who made that suggestion will get a Thews @ Ten seat.
Then the first person to complete that challenge (after we have announced it!) will get a £33 Sky Sports BH seat!
Please make sure your suggestion is trackable (so it can be proved) and most importantly, possible! It needs to be tough but not too tough.
Suggest away....
No restrictions on being hyper or omaha or pot limit but no russian roulette or 4 ways.
1st level 55p
2nd level £1.05
3rd £2.10
4th £3.25
5th £5.25
6th £10.50
7th £15.75
8th £26.25 (They may need to put more of them in though as only ever one there)
9th £42
10th £52
11th £105
12th and finally £210
This can be tracked and is well within every players bankroll as you only stand to lose 55p a go!! If you lose you reset all the way to the bottom your free to drop out any time! And Once you get past the 3rd level if you lose you technically have made a profit as the 2nd and 3rd gap isn't huge and same as the 9th and 10th so you win on many different levels!!
First to win 2 DYM'S v DEL560
SHOULD ONLY TAKE ABOUT 1 YEAR!!!.
First to two consec survivor quals from the sunday
Are we allowed to post on our own thread? Oh well, here goes...
How about the first person to finish in the top 20 places of each 8pm main event? i.e. one for each day of the week. There could be a main and mini version too.
Anything that involves all and does not exclude is good
DYM challange through the levels was the best one and worth doing again
I vote for HU hYPERCHARGE!!!!! any level - should be fun and quick to complete )
Even the mini version we suggested?
Although that said, we weren't suggesting it had to be consecutive nights. You could 'tick them off' over the space of a few weekls. It might take that long anyway?
Who knows we've never done it before.
Some good ideas, keep 'em coming!
Re: LIVE TONIGHT WEDNESDAY 11TH APRIL BETWEEN 7PM AND MIDNIGHT- post the best timed tourney profit and play tomorrow night's Main Event for free!

I think it definitely needs to be something that suits all bankrolls so all players have a chance to go for it (alot of people can't even afford to play the ME in 7 consecutive nights, let alone cash in it every time).
You are very limited with the challenges when it needs to be tracked and I think Batkin has come up with one as good as it's gonna get.
I'd recommend a shortish timescale though because once someone does a massive run people seem to lose interest.
1. Anybody who doesn't play on one or more evening per week due to other hobbies/work/out of consideration to family etc. is excluded.
2. ME/Mini players already have the Jackpot to play for
3. It wouldn't attract any extra players into the fields or generate any extra rake, in all likelihood the winner will come from a small band of daily ME regulars. A HU or similar event would get loads of extra games running and everybody can join in.
I think the most brain melting thing is doing a bunch of MTTs with different rules/playing styles at the same time.
On a wednesday we could do...
18.50 £250 bountyhunter (£2.30)
19.00 £100 freeroll (50pts)
19.05 £200 30min Timed (£3.30)
19.10 PL Omaha (£3.30)
19.15 £150 deepstack (£2.20)
Highest cash total wins the challenge
