After his 50 SBD League victory, is about to do what no player in SPL history has done before, win the coveted SPL Triple Crown Badge. There are still a few players who can keep him from the coveted title, mainly
and @Cody.
To win the SPL Triple Crown Badge, a player within the span of one week (Starting Sunday and ending Saturday) must accomplish the following three tasks:
- Win a 50 SBD League Freeeroll
- Win the most SBD for the week in the Mid Limit Tourneys/SNG's
- Win the most SBD for the week in the Low Limit Tourneys/SNG's
If by midnight Saturday (PST) a player is first in all three classes, they win the Triple Crown Badge, get their name in the record books as one of the rare Triple Crown Winners, and get free advertising for any post for one full week on the stats page and I'm sure we can get Tuck to put it on the Lucksacks main page for the week you reign as the Champ.
This past week we saw and
win a 50 SBD. There is also another 50 SBD scheduled for this August 4 on the Lucksacks website. The only ones who have a chance at the Triple Crown are the winners of a 50 SBD or greater tournament.
The next challenge to conquer is to become the biggest SBD winner for the week in the small and medium sized tournaments and SNG's. If we look at the current status of these three challenges, you'll see that is first in a 50 SBD, and is running second in the mid level games and third in the low limit games.
To win the Triple Crown, will need to win whatever
wins in the small limits PLUS an extra .29 SBD. In the mid level games, @Cody and
are
's biggest threats. He will need to win more than those two (or anyone else who makes a bid) in the next three days to take down the first place spot.
From the looks of things today, appears to be the only player this week with a chance of winning the Triple Crown Trophy. Let's wish him luck and watch and see how it plays out.
