About 6 of us in Newcastle want to play a 48-72 (possibly 79+) to break the world record that laak has just set as it is ridic how easy it is and having a bunch of us doing it would be pretty cool.
What do people suggest we play? Would pot limit pre and no limit post be a good option? Capped? etc etc Basically people dont wanna lose like 20+ buyins as the game will end up breaking and we will be the only ones in the game.
Also will def be able to get red bull to sponsor us/give us as many free crates as we want, would any casino allow this?

pretty epic.
perhaps allow money to be taken off the table at certain points if the game is getting too deep. eg if the avg gets 400bb+ or whatever then agree to drop everyone back down to 200bb.

120 hours is the line we going for. 5 minutes break every hour and you're allowed to save your 5 minutes up. so after every day you'd have around 100 minutes break if you clocked it up.

Why would they put free food on for you when they know you are trapped there?

we'd most likely have the choice of all 3 casinos. the good press they would make would far outway the £££ they would spend feeding us, most likely going to be some charity fundraising happening and with the Guinness book of records etc going to be there not only would it be amazing press it would also bring lots of people to casino.
also they would make a shit load off us in rake.

Throw a charity element in otherwise you wont get as much attention.
I would try and piggy back the attempt on the back of a festival to help promote it/get potential sponsorship/gaurantee a crowd. The Newcastle summer series is this month, prob too early.
Also limit omaha hi/lo, blinds £0.02/£0.04 should ensure nobody goes broke

I didn't think Laak broke the record? Didn't he stop before he reached the existing record? Edit: My bad - he hammered the old record  |

No way are are group of people going to break Laak's 115 hour record.
That's over 4 days straight! The guy is just sick but don't forget he grinds the Bellagio 10/20 like a madman anyway so his body is a lot more used to being up a hell of a lot longer than I imagine most of the guys who are planning this are.
Also, casinos are unlikely to give too much of a shit imo. Let's get some PR for gamblers who do nothing but gamble for days and days on end. Weeeee. lol.
I think if you were to try and do it, like BarryDaveShoelacePokernewsEditorCarter says, you'd need to do it with a charity element to attract positive PR which is obv a draw for the casino facilitating you. Prob good if you do it around one of their poker festivals too.
