Interpoker $200k freeroll....

[Talking Poker]

Have you guys heard about this? is having a $200,000 freeroll. Well, sort of. You have to play 2000 raked hands in October to qualify (more on that in a sec).

They are giving out 30 Caribbean Poker Classic Prize Packages - 10 full blown ones, and 20 "lite" ones.

I'd love to play in this, but I'm not sure if I can get the hands in. I was thinking I could just fire up 4 or 6 low limit tables and fold everything but monster hands, but then I read the fine print. There has to be $1 in rake taken from the pot in order for it to count as a raked hand. In other words, it has to be a $20 pot, so the ultra-low limits are out.

Well, maybe not. I see now that they will count .25-.99 rake as 1/4 hand. Man, that would be a lot of hands...

It's doable, but I have a lot of poker to play.

I wonder how many people will be in this thing. 300? 1000? 2000? I really have no idea.

Anyway, here are the details (copied and pasted from their site). You better get moving if you want to play...
