    OK, no cash in my 2nd one either- a little unlucky that time as I was ahead until the 3 outer-river.

    No matter- I'm upping the ante now- in the 15 minute 8.40pm game and signed up for the 60 minute 8.55pm game...

    What I've just seen is not possible... It's rigged... It must be...

    I think RICHORFORD must be a super-account. How do I contact customer services?

    That's it then- big congrats to Spornybol who plays in tomorrow night's Sky Sports Bounty Hunter at 8pm free-of-charge after posting a very impressive 504% ROI

    Thanks to Evil Pingu for the maths, too.

    Well done Sporny!

    Still not as good as mine though this week ;-) 
    1226%! Just gotta love that!

    Cheers all and see you next Wednesday for another round of timed tourneys!

    Hi all,

    Psst! Wanna easy shot at landing a seat into tomorrow night's main event?

    Listen up!

    All you've got to do is record the biggest profit in a single timed tournament between 7pm till midnight tonight.

    That's it!

    It's a really fun challenge and you can give it as many goes as you want.

    The prize for the player who beats the rest tonight?

    A free seat into tomorrow night's 12K Sky Sports Bounty Hunter! (which we'll be covering on the live Sky Poker TV show)

    Here's what you'll need to do-

    As soon as you've cashed in a timed tourney tonight- cut and paste proof on to this thread and then calculate your Return On Investment (ROI) below- like this:

    Machka705011£17.62
    £400 Gtd 30 mins

    Buy-in £5.50

    Prize- £17.62

    Profit= £12.12  (£17.62 - £5.50)

    divided by the buy-in (£5.50)

    = 2.20


     multiplied by 100 to give a percentage

    = 220%

    So, it doesn't matter how low the buy-in is, or how long the timed tournament goes on for, because only the ROI is important!

    You can keep recording scores all night. I'll just take the single best individual result from all entries as the winner at midnight.

    Last time Spornybol took the honours with a solid score of 504%

    But you should post- even if it's only a small ROI because you never know how many people will enter and, as a result, if you're lowly score might turn out to be the best one.

    So, do you think you have what it takes to be the champion of timed tournaments?

    Only one way to find out!

    I'll be on the site from 7pm myself playing timed tourneys and Mastercash tables till midnight.

    See you there and good luck!

    PS- Can anyone beat my record of 1226%? Yes, I posted that bad boy last week and I truly believe that not only is it an all-time timed tourney website record but it will never be beaten by anyone

    Prove me wrong!
