New Upgrade - Mini Grinder Challenge -

Something we've been talking about for awhile, the mini grinder challenge.

How it works:

The first one to 150 grinder points wins 10% of the prize pool.


After it's hit, everyone is reset to 0 grinder points and we start again, simple!

If 150 points is to hard, then we'll lower it.. If it's to easy, we'll raise it! It's something that should probably be hit 1-2 times per month.

starting? today?

Just the Carbon freerolls ?? or are the others included ?

nice. this is actually gonna be a very cool upgrade.

20%

I like this idea a lot. Again just another great addition to the many promotions keeping this site at the top of poker forums!!

Im taking the 1st 1 down ;)

I would like to add, I think you will find that will be too many points Zab. If someone won 1 tournie a day for 30 days that's only 330 points. It does seem unrealistic that more then one person could even win it in a month with all points resetting when someone wins. I am going to agree with Pkeryourface and say 20% will probably be better because only 1 person a month tops would be able to win it with the points resetting.... Thinking out loud.....

The avg. first place finisher for the grinder challenge on a given day is around 20 points. So even if you did that every day it would take you 25 days.

So ok, let's start with 200 points and see how quickly it gets hit.

sweet! can we start yesterday....

Ah, ok good to know. yeah, if you're going to start 10% I think 200 points is a good number. I bet it will take about 15 days for someone to get there unless they are playing really well and cards are running good. If this is going in place, definitely leave the daily grinder at 30 points. It seems to be getting a bit more challenging as new members filter in and make for bigger PO FR's.

10% of the normal grinder prize pool

Currently it took 45 days to reach 200 points
It took 20 days to reach 150 points.

Let's start with 150 points and then raise it up a bit from there.
