Lol read the first 10 - 12 pages and then I see you posted it a few minutes before me lol

"Most variants of poker played profitably online at the same time" - play every variant of poker at a certain buyin level and show profit after X hours, so that even if he does not profit in 1 or 2 particular games the other games still count towards the record

Won X amount of money in 1 hour playing without seeing his cards!

most knockouts per hour

most money won over x time period while not allowed to play with a pocket pair

he should cook dinner for 25 people ( worth 2500$) while playing poker. Prep. time for dinner is one hour. After one hour he has to have 2500$ profit. Limit? Not sure 100nl?

Worlds' fastest poker player - Most mouse clicks in poker session

Set up Randy with 2 or more Pc, each hooked up to multiple monitors. Randy then uses a few different mouse (I think 2 is most realistic), to play multiple-tables. Calculate the number of mouse clicks (any action bet, call, fold) and time it for an hour.


This is definitely more interesting than calculating number of games/hands for the non poker playing public.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but a variation on an earlier post itt. Lew should attempt to play poker with the most amount of people in a specific amount of time. I guess an hour would be a bit of a challenge trying to open up as many tables and folding and moving on the next. There could be a stipulation like no tableninja or anything or possibly a winrate. All types of poker can be included, but for a player to be counted as played with Lew just needs to be dealt in the same hand with him. This way he could add mtt and sngs on top of the cash games.

Most tables of online poker played with his feet

this could be hard and may require a bit of practice using a mouse with his foot, but he should be able to do it.

Most total cards seen in an hour/day

- this would count all cards dealt to him, and cards dealt to other players, even if they fold pre-flop. - a facedown card still equals seen.

- would also count flop, turn, river cards obviously


This number would be huge. It is essentially the same as most hands but would be ~10x that depending on what tables he chooses to play at. Bigger numbers get greater public appeal.

Omaha may be a good choice.

Could also make it time based -

eg. Fastest Time to see 1 million cards dealt in poker

24 tabling for 24 hours - playing battleship poker

Unfortunately, Randy doesn't play the highest stakes, nor the most volume.

He does play higher stakes and a large volume, however. Other things can be incorporated, but they are too technical, going by the example posted, to be understood by non poker players.

So something simple, that, when applied to higher stakes, will inherently become more difficult.

1. The total number of times opponents hands were folded while winning without a showdown, in a 24 hour period.

2. Fastest time (in hours not hands) to turn $10 into $10,000 (WSOP Main Event Buy in) while only playing cash games.

3. Largest amount of big blinds won in 24 hours (x hours), at a cash game. Think this is the the one that features Randy's skills the most.

didnt read all the pages,

how about 25NL --> 2000 NL in xxxx amount of time or different stakes.

would be a good promotion for stars, just like the boku challenge

**** Didnt read all - excuse duplicate thoughts ****

Im not a huge fan of overly gimmicky and contrived records. So I would say there are only really two or three routes to go. I think even the Elky record is alreay unclear and contrived -because Guinness like to keep it simple they dont even explain the concept of a SNG (which is really what the record was about) and casual browsers would probably wonder what the record (most tables played in an hour) means? Did he simply hop from one table to another.

I would look for the clearest possible record.

Either:

1. Go beat Phil Laak's record - longest time playing poker - who cares if its online or live. (Guinness dont seem to be a huge fan of these endurance records anymore though)

2. Most poker hands played in 1 hour / 24 hours - hands is a much clearer descriptor than "tables" as used in Elky's record (why didnt they just say tournaments).

3. Shortest time to play 100,000 poker hands.

Something very clear and concise... and then (Stars) maybe these very contrived world records should stop. I think you've beat this drum to death.

Most Money raise for charity while playing poker on water inside a shark cage as long as he can. Since the record is on carebean island ofcourse there´s no problem with the water and no problem on finding sharks and feeding them from a boat while randy´s playing inside the cage. Ofcourse the publicity of this would be huge. Any normal people would understand the principle raise money for charity and playing cards. Charity would apreciate it. I´m already seeing those photographs under water of randy with blue and grey sharks around him and laptop with pokerstars pokerstars logo on It. The TV add would be awsome and at the end the phrase "The Real Sharks play Underwater .... Pokerstars " oh oh !

Make nano play 24 tables at once:
-playing 2tables of each stake from 0.01/0.02 to 25/50 nlh SH
so it will be:
2tbls- 0.01/0.02
2tbls- 0.02/0.05
2tbls- 0.05/0.10
2tbls- 0.10/0.25
2tbls- 0.25/0.50
2tbls- 0.50/1
2tbls- 1/2
2tbls- 2/4
2tbls- 3/6
2tbls- 5/10
2tbls- 10/20
2tbls- 25/50

And show profit on all stakes after 24h.
U can make some adjustments like "after 12h, allowing him to replace tables where he is up, with tables where he is loosing, but he has to have at least 1 table of each stake at any given point in time"

It will show community(and casual audience)that good player "the poker genius" is capable of beating any limit.

etc. etc.

Free rolls to PCA main. Or maybe start with $200 or something. So what $10300 I think.

Might need some time for this though. This challenge would work on multiple levels. Promotes randy, stars and the Pca. If he actually ran deep in the main event it could generate a nice mini boom.

Some chess players play simultaneous. That means that the player plays against several players at the same time. My idea is that Randy plays a heads up against 100(or more) players at the same time. And not online but as a live tournament.

Most cash game hands like in 24 hours period (can also be like 8hrs or smthing like that). Sounds good, right ?

Playing HU SnG's live and online as many as possible within 2 hours with a buy in of $50 or higher.

and now compare luck factor in chess with luck in poker

Damn, I just had the same idea ... one hour late I guess.

I'v got couple of guesses:

The most online Poker hands won in one hour.
Fastest profitable online poker session of 10K hands.

Play with 100% VPIP(100% hands) and remain profitable after 24 hours.
You can fold a hand if there was a raise and reraise before you or there was an open push(or raise for more than 20% of someone's stack)

play 25 tables, 1 live 24 online all at the same time.
