Man, this bonus at Noble Poker is not easy. $80,000 if you win six in a row of their $20 + $3 Rio Jackpot Tournaments. I have now won two in a row twice. The first time, I got two in a row, then a second. However, 6 first and seconds in a row give you a $300 bonus. But on the 4th game I got a third. El Stinko. Third gives you your money back plus a buck. Then I won two in a row and got a fourth, which sucks, because you don't even get your money back on 4th. <G> This thing has to be beatable. One of the problems is, the bonus is so high, you get a lot of people who will not usually play a $20 buy-in tournament. Like people who made the final tables on The World Poker Tour. The other problem is, when I go all in with aces before the flop to nail down the victory, somebody always kicks my butt with a pair of threes that trip or staighten or flush. <VBG> But, I'm not smart enough to give up and I am making money at these turkeys.
