LeCheese Challange – Battle of the Bloggers
On Wednesday, a unique tournament will take place at Full Tilt Poker. Myself, and a few of Internet’s best poker authors, are going to play a two table sit’n’go and determine who the best poker blogger is … best at playing poker that is. Not writing.
The tournament is sponsored by RakeBrain.com and has the slightly narcissistic name LeCheese Challenge. We’ll play a mixture of Texas Hold’em and Omaha, both in pot-limit format, with stacks a bit deeper than normal. That combination requires a lot of poker skills and it’ll be impossible to go all in all the time. Instead, we have to see flops! Something certain poker players don’t like.
I really look forward to this – $500 to the winner and $100 to the player who knocks me out, if anyone manages to accomplish that.
Participating poker bloggers so far:
John - BadBlood
Drizztdj - Nickle and Dimes
Byron - Biggestron Writes
Scott - Doubleas
Dave - PokerKingBlog
Jason Turner - TripJax
John - SeattleJohnPoker
Jeff - DonkeyPuncher
MrSubliminal - MrSubliminal
Mookie99 - Mookie99
NightRanger - Beer City Poker
Katitude - Katitude
GCox25 - Low Limit Grinder
Frost2 - War Poker Room
Two of the most prominent RakeBrain players will also participate in LeCheese Challenge: JJProdigys Gran and td8507.
Fellow poker bloggers; those are the players we’ve got to take down to stand a chance. I know they play quite a lot of poker – maybe more than all of us combined.
I carry on with low-limit Omaha grinding by the way…
Bankroll: $1,047
Rakeback: $177 (February not included)

FT says that it’s impossible to create a “freeroll” with double stacks. We’ll see what we can do - maybe we have to play with the normal amount of chips. This is obviously bad for me and good for the rest of y’all.
