Anyone else playing in this? Just finished day one with a little over 10k in points and 2 bronze metals.

Wow nice one! I dont play on Merge, but I read about the promo and it seems to be great. Do you get the bonuses instant, or do you have to wait until the end of the promo?

[rezster]

These are instant cash bonuses.

About 9 hours

Day 2
My calculations are way off...earned 11,320 CP for a total of 21,620. Bankroll at +177.08. Earned 2 more medals, at level 4 of Bronze. Still off the pace by a good bit, I'm going to try playing more tables to increase my earn rate.

Earning slightly more points but still off pace, 11,691 comp points today for a total of 33,311. Two medal acquired, now at Bronze level 6. My bankroll is up $337.24.

I had planned on taking Mondays off during August. Since I'm behind, I'll play a few hours to get back on pace.

The way my poker game is of late, I'll wait for the Poker Special Olympics to start.

Sounds like Rezter is rocking and rolling though.

Now on pace to complete this promotion. I've accumulated 40,049 points this month. Currently, at level 8 of the bronze medals. Bankroll has dropped to +188.67.

I should reach the silver medals by the end of Day 5.

9-12 tables, .25 up to 1.00 NL

The bronze medals have been completed!

Earned 13,533 points for the day, total is now at 53,582. The bankroll is up $251.38.

I'll need 10k to win each of the silver medals. At the 13.5k pace, I expect to complete those medals sometime next week.
