Welcome to forum main, videopoker.com! Careful what you wish for! Lose enough playing VP in any given casino and they will send you an invitation to their tournament. Then they are designed to keep you captive in a casino for one or more days with lots of extra time to kill. In one very small tournament, my husband claimed my pittance of 3rd place was not worth returning for, the next day. He was right, but I returned anyway and won $1600 on a VP machine hand. How much does one have to lose to qualify? It varies. Maybe equivalent to a year's property taxes or child's braces or son's first year college tuition.

Are you talking about in a casino? Or the challenges on this site?

You need to contact OEJ719 and get details for the upcoming flipping tournament. Heed caution though because he's an expert at the game and will only teach by appointment. He's written books and has an extensive library available

Don't forget my videos, where I rant and rave about all kind of useless BS and show no logic.

You CAN win big money with it!  All you have to do is make sure your records are based mainly on your Professional (winning) play.  Sprinkle a few losing sessions here and there among the winning ones so that people don't get too suspicious. 
 
If you do happen to arrange a training session with oej, bring only high-denomination coins for flipping, since that's when you'll do most of your winning.  Bring plenty of them as it may take a while for them to warm up.  Pennies and nickels are for putzes.

More critics!!! I play in short term burst just like I drink. I bet $57000 that says I win on my terms when I want with no one watching me to distract me. Class dismissed, I got to go pee pee now.

  Well isn't that just ducky! Fast drinking and fast winning. Next he'll be bragging about hard liquor and hard women!

Oej, you really should take some of that $57,000 and get that bladder problem taken care of.  You're missing many hot cycles with all those trips to the rest room, plus you're missing those late night Gilligan's Island reruns on the eye-level widescreen.
