Scapegote's Challenge

I guy I know from the forum at ITH (Internet Texas Holdem), who goes by the name of Scapegote has just set himself something of a monumental challenge. The challenge is to turn $100 into $10,000 in 30 days by playing online poker. Sounds immpossible huh? Not quite, but certainly going to need a lot of luck (not normally something to associated with a sucessful poker player!). From what I know of him, he's a very strong player, so it's certainly not out of the question.

He's put a $250 bet on his succeeding at odds of 15-1, which should provide additional incentive and if he fails to make $10,000 he should certainly have made enough to cover the $250 investment.

Daily reports of his progress are available on his blog: Poker According to Scapegote

After day one he's on $211. Should be a pretty interesting month.
