I don't know if anybody actively tries to complete the Iron Man Challenge, either by qualifying for a certain amount of FTPs per day over a certain amount of days, or by earning at least 1 FTP every day for a month. I'm interested to know what people think of this. I play usually at night after I get home from work, so i've found it very easy to accumulate a point a day since I just make sure I play on FTP every other day right around midnight on server time. I did the same thing when FTP did their Take 2 promotion and was able to make an easy ~$25 or so when I'm a horrible cash game player. I basically played two tables from 11:55 to 0:05 every other day and cashed out when I was done and racked up way more than the amount of points necessary.

I have another issue that kinda goes along with the Daily Dollar I played yesterday. I looked at my Iron Man calendar and it shows that I earned 200 yesterday. I'm just wondering if they give that to the people who make the final table in this tournament or something? I really have no idea. The only other thing I could think of is that they did that because of the system crash from the night before. I'll include a screen capture so you can see what I'm talking about.

I'm interested to see if anybody from here has actually paid attention to doing this to qualify for the One-a-day Iron Man 2k freeroll. If you are a West Coast player, this because even easier because of the day switching over at 9 pm and not having to stay up until midnight. I'm almost certain I will take the freeroll entry over the medals unless something comes up where I couldn't make the tournament.
