Pokerstars Puts Professional into Lower Staked Sit and Go’s
April 29, 2009
Bertrand Grospellier, 3rd place finisher at the recently finished WPT Championship 2009 announced that he was going to make a bid to play a record number of sit and go’s within one hour.
Grospellier decided that he would play $6.50 sit and go tournaments, multi tabling as many as he could within one hour.
The decision to take this challenge meant that players with a smaller bankroll could place themselves up against one of the leading names in the poker industry at the moment, with Grospellier cashing a career total of more than $5.7 million.
With the increased standard within the tournaments that the pro will be playing, Pokerstars the site behind the professional, has revealed that all players who buy into the sit and go tournaments alongside the professional will be offered entry into a $1,000 freeroll tournament.
The players bid to make the record books shouldn’t be too hard due to no record been held for the task to date, so no matter how he does he will make history.
Although there is no record set for this task i have recently read about a player who played at Pokerstars and laid out a bet that he could make $100 into $10,000 purely by playing as many sit and go tournaments as he needed within the hour time scale he set himself.
The amatuer player took bets against him to succeed in his task but in front of the eyes of all who watched his webcam feed, he succeeded.
