Rather obvious April Fools prank?

Read in PokerPlayer magazine about this website
www.10thousandpoundsforfree.com
supposedly offering a 10k bankroll for the first x amount of players who check it out or something. Was obviously rather dubious but whacked in the url anyway...
Looks like a rather lame prank to me, was surprised it was worthy of a mention in the magazine (or on this forum for that matter, but meh!)

Lol, ah I see
I didn't think it was from the % cut Blonde's getting from my heads-up staking thing, otherwise it'd be limited to only 1 Blonde being staked for 0.01/0.02 and having to buy-in in short!

Listen Fella ... that 2% was very gratefully accepted, regardless of what it amounts to ... muchos respect is due for that gesture.

The best one (well it would have been if they'd got the date right) was this whole blonde SAS staking scheme - they put a lot of work into it.

Thought I'd check out the page today just to see what it said,
If you're gonna pull a "prank" like this you might as well execute it properly. Poor effort imo...

It's only had 47 hits...I'm guessing most are from us.
