Today’s “Doh!” Moment Brought To You By Betfair

Betfair recently ran a promotion called Completely Nuts where Betfair would award $100K to the first person who won the Annette $20K Guarantee as well as either the $6k or $5k guaranteed tournament in the same month. Because you’re reading about it here you’ve probably already guessed that it took all of one day for player redmist7 to score the $100K prize.
Not trying to take anything away from redmist7 but in actuality it wasn’t all that tough of a challenge. Looking at the currently listed tournaments on Betfair, the most players they have listed in any event is 925 in a freeroll. The Annette $20K that ran on Aug 4 attracted only 78 players and their $5K and $6K guarantees seem to pull about a similar number of players.
Doh!
