In 12 days from now (4th October) I will be starting my next challenge...
What I'll be doing:
Registering in every tournament on the Micro (below $5) tab on Pokertstars for a 24 hour period.
The rules:
I will buy into ALL tournaments of ALL game types, only excluding Re-buys, Hyper Turbos and Heads-ups.
I will buy into the first tournament at 9am Saturday 4th October and stop registering at 8:59am Sunday 5th October.
If I miss a tournament challenge is FAILED
I will start with a bankroll of $500 and will not add any extra.
If I cannot register due to no funds challenge is FAILED
After all tournaments are finished, I must have a profit.
If I am below my $500 starting roll challenge is FAILED
After all tournaments are finished, I must be at least 15% ITM.
If I am below 15% ITM challenge is FAILED
These are all the rules I can think of right now - I may add more at a later point. I expect there to be around 400-500 tournaments altogether, so total buy-ins will likely be around $1,000
There will be a "play along" prize I will be offering, so nearer the time I'll be asking people to guess my ROI & ITM %
Rules/prizes etc aren't set yet, so suggestions and ideas will be welcomed.

I will be railing you for some time, not full time though I think... But each and every tourney seems like a lot, so every game too, like razz, stud etc.?

Yep - every game type... The hardest part will be staying focused on what game is what... All the stud variants seem the same at first look, so I'll have to be constantly paying attention.

I'll happily stake $25 vs your $25 Allen... but don't want you to think I'm misleading you in any way... I've done things similar to this before successfully, and have every reason to believe I will be successful again.

wow this is so sick (on the positive note). i can't imagine what it takes to play 24h non stop and on top of this play all poker forms available? how the fcuk should one orientate on so many different tables- i have a feeling this cannot end well. i stake $0.01 vs your $0.01 that you will fail. however i wish you best of luck and hope that you can prove me wrong. +1 for even trying

Ok... Allen and Pochui have gave me an idea...
Anyone who wants to bet against me can do so - if I fail, I'll pay out everyone in full - If I win, I'll keep half of all money wagered, and pay the other half out in prizes.

WOW! Respect man! How I dream of being able to play non stop poker for 24 hours! The dream of not being interrupted by wife and children making various demands of my time and then there's work, and god how I would love to lock myself away to even think about such a challenge. If I can get one tourney in without interruption it's a mission!
Anyway, good luck and will try to rail you at some stage while walking the dog!

just think of the number of tables opened at the same time , maybe 15+ no sleep misclicks no time to analyse each hand but that is why it is called a CHALLENGE if i had to bet , i would bet against you , sorry buddy however i wish you prove us wrong and succeed Good Luck

i've got faith in you , i've seen you do it twice before. i don't know how you can play that many games for so long, after i've played for about 5hrs i start to get bored, again good luck in this challange, you should have put a vote in this thread, i'm voting win.
If I miss a tournament challenge is FAILED
