Luckbox Last Longer Challenge Results

by Luckbox

Thanks to everyone who participated in the 2nd Luckbox Last Longer Challenge. It was a huge success... made even better by the $2000 added prize pool from our friends at PokerStars!

We had 24 teams enter for a total of $720 in entry fees. If that doesn't scream, "Hammer!" then I don't know what does.

In the end, Team Roach bested us all with a remarkable combined finish of 43. Poker Gnome finished 5th, Recess Rampage finished 16th and Bayne finished 22nd. They each walked away with $120 plus $500 from PokerStars.

The lovely ladies from Team Hammer Girls finished 2nd with a combined finish of 65. Katitude finished 19th, Maigrey finished 21st and Maudie finished 25th. They each cashed for $72 plus $500 to split from PokerStars.

Last, but not least, Team Tao of Pot proved that chemical enhancements can pay off. Their combined finish of 78 was 8 better than 4th place. Change100 bubbled the final table in 11th, Derek finished 28th and Pauly finished 39th. They each took home $48.

Here's the rest of the top 10:

(Apologies for any spelling errors or incorrect names. Please alert me in the comments.)

4th: Team Last Minute - Alceste, California April, DawnSummers (86)
5th: Team Waffles - Jordan, Dr. Chako, Waffles (90)
6th: Team Geek Nation - Penner, Alan, Garth (91)
7th: Team I Kissed One of These Girls - F-Train, CK, The Wife (92)
8th: Team LA D-Bags - Joe Speaker, Absinthe, Shane (98)
9th: Team Two Chicks and a Grump - Poker Grump, Katie, Writer Jen (105)
10th (t): Team Bonus Code Iggy - Obie VIP, Iggy, Rooster (113)
10th (t): Team Bad Football - Butch, Matt, Columbo (113)

Thanks again to everyone who participated. We'll definitely do this again, especially if we can get PokerStars involved!

Oh...

And for the record Team Up For Poker finished with a total of 132 which was ahead of the defending champs, Team Mizzou, who came in at 137.

Thanks for putting together the last longer challenge! It was a lot of fun, and I appreciate the PokerStars added cash.
Team Roach FTW!

Confused....

I finished first. Ed finished 12th. Naseem finished 60th (or at least that's what you told me, correct me if I'm wrong)? Last I checked, that was 73... even if Naseem was first out, that's 99...

Astin: I'll have to go back and see if I can track down the individual finishes. I only had the totals I had added up with me today. I'm not sure what might have happened.

It was so great of you to organize this. I'm sure it can't have been easy to play your game while taking in all the bust out info.

Thanks again!
