MCFC 1

The series will run like the FTOPS. Depending on the success, we'll run a new challenge whenever we see fit. Each challenge will be nicknamed.

MCFC 1 - LOL-DONKAMENTS will run from December 1st 2008 - December 31st 2008.

The participants for the inaugural MCFC are as follows:
  • GC
  • DC
  • DP
Note that these are NOT our FTP handles as we're trying to preserve some anonymity.
We want to be saved from the mocking and railbirds who might somehow find this poker blog.

Let me handicap each person's chances of success:
  1. DP (2-1 favorite)
    He's known for a very aggressive game and can be found at the 5/10NL 6-max games online or high stakes RAZZ.
    He's known to run extremely good at times but he's also known for his kamikaze moves.
    He'll play a very high volume to keep up with GC in the rakeback challenge.
    He'll take some risks and play with his entire roll at one shot to double up and get some breathing room.

    Favorite Hand: AA
    Number of rebuys (over/under): 2.5

  2. GC (3-1 favorite)
    He plays a very straightforward tight (some say too tight) game
    He can be found multi-tabling 1/2NL full ring games on FTP
    He runs like ass when he take very occasional shots at higher stakes (burning money at 5/10NL!)
    He's known to run extremely bad at times and takes vicious beats but should be due for a heater ... right? ...
    He'll play a very high volume 'cause that's how he rolls.
    He'll start off conservatively but will ultimately go on tilt and gamble his bankroll at one table.

    Favorite Hand: 97s
    Number of rebuys (over/under): 2.5

  3. DC (4-1 favorite)
    The darkhorse who has tons of time on his hands due to parental leave.
    He can be found in donkaments or small stakes cash games.
    He's known to run anywhere from extremely bad to running like God in an MTT and final tabling a couple of donkaments for an awesome ROI.
    DC will use a very conservative style since he's not concerned with the rakeback challenge.
    He'll count on GC and DP to reload and maintain his edge that way ... if all else fails then he'll luckbox an MTT.

    Favorite Hand: J8
    Number of rebuys (over/under): 1.5

So, those are the donks ... place your bets now!
I'll be providing running commentary as MCFC 1 continues.
