I'd be willing to guess that Chisness has that record. At the end of last year he was putting in ridiculous volumes on little/no sleep. You'd have to ask him to know exactly how many consecutive hours though. I think several times he hit around 40k VPP in a session. And put in 750k VPP in the last 6 weeks of the year.

I played 18.5 straight hours on a double VPP day a couple years ago. I think I had a 20 hour stretch over on Party while competing in a promotion for a $10k cruise/tournament package.

It's not too taxing when you only have two different buttons to push all day. Try doing it full-stacked and then see how you feel!

defintly agree with this


although one could say it is taxing as well for the SS having to change tables/waitlists/pay attention to stack sizes/not keep joining same tables that they ratholed on

Re: Official 2010 Supernova Elite pursuit thread

Ok, so I am going to try and go for Supernova Elite in 2011.

What I am trying to figure out, is how much more money can I make by going into 2011 with a Supernova status, compared to a platinum status? What difference will there be in money? I know that you get the FPP multiplier but I am trying to figure out what is the difference between starting 2011 as Platinum or Supernova.

Thanks so much.

Here's another question:

if I reach Supernova THIS year, you get a 2.5x FPP multiplier if I read that correctly.

So, say I reach 1,000,000 for Supernova this year. Even though I won't technically be "Supernova" until probably December, will I then get 2,500,000 FPP's for this year? Or would that 2.5 multiplier only count for the following year?

Thanks for any help!

Re: Official 2010 Supernova Elite pursuit thread

the mulriplier is actually 3.5x so starting the year as a supernova u will have at least 3.5 mill FPPs by years end. starting as playinum wouldnt make that big a deal because u would only be at 2.5x multiplier till u reached 100k vpps so u would have like 3.4mill fpps at years end

Re: Official 2010 Supernova Elite pursuit thread

Thanks for your help. I just want to know how much money I would lose by starting 2011 at Platinum vs. Supernova.

So what you are saying is that i would lose about 100,000 FPP's by starting at platinum instead of Supernova, correct?

And this 100,000 would represent about $1,500 or so then? I get to the number by assuming I will cash in 250,000 FPPs for $4,000.

Thanks alot for your help, please correct me if I am wrong.

Re: Official 2010 Supernova Elite pursuit thread

about $1,600 or so at that rate.

You'd also likely miss free entry into the first Quarterly $1,000,000 VIP Freeroll which this year offered roughly $200 value per player. If you managed to make 100,000 VPPs in 2011 prior to the freeroll you could still get free entry.
