Default ElkY first to reach supernova elite

Did a quick search, but didnt see any mention of this anywhere. Delete if needed please.


ElkY wins race to Supernova Elite

Back in the days before ElkY was a member of Team PokerStars, he burned tracks in the first couple weeks of 2006 to become PokerStars' first Supernova. Most online players--even the high volume folks who see the sun once a week--couldn't believe how fast ElkY made it to what was then the highest PokerStars VIP Club membership level.

It's not been too long ago that PokerStars introduced an even higher VIP Club level--Supernova Elite. Members of the group get insane benefits, including 400% FPP bonuses, access to all VIP events, and entries into more than $20,000 of major tournaments. All it takes to become a member is a paltry one million VIP Player Points during a calendar year.

It took ElkY just a little more than four months.

This weekend, ElkY crossed the one million VPP mark to become the first member of the Supernova Elite level.

"It was really really hard work but I'm proud I still managed to be the first to get it," ElkY said.

Now, after four hard months of work, ElkY is going to take a short break and get ready for next month's World Series.

As both the first-ever Supernova and first-ever Supernova Elite, ElkY needs a new challenge.

First man on Mars, perhaps?

He lost about 250,000 on his quest to be supernova elite. Check his stats on sharkscope. Of couse he probably has some sort of rakeback deal with stars and which could mean he's actually up after this whole process. I believe bigjoe has gotten enough points and will be the first person to order the ashton martin.

Knock off the $250k from SNGs and we're left with $70k. What does that come out to? Like 45 cents per hour?

I don't know... That (and a glance through the rest of your posts) seems to pretty much cover it.

I'm sure you do.

You know, for a guy who got banned from here for making worthless, annoying, random posts - only to BEG to be allowed back - you sure are headed down the wrong road again quickly.

Believe me dude, it probably has NOTHING to do with someone not agreeing with him. It probably has more to do with the useless posts and the inane high-school-text-message grammar.

*sniff sniff* You will be missed.

Funny thing is, the only things I disagree with you about are:
-The quality of your posts (they suck - do a search on all your posts and see for yourself)
-That I personally don't think 45 cents per hour is a ton of money.
-Oh, and I wouldn't marry Elky, even if he was into guys. I don't swing that way, but hey - nothing wrong with that. To each their own.
