Back in January, GGPoker Ambassador Kevin Martin put his luscious locks on the line during a 60-hour self-imposed streaming challenge that he dubbed 'The War Room Challenge.'
On March 8 at 10am ET, ACR Poker Pro Jon Pardy will embark on a similar journey – but for exactly double the amount of time. That’s 120 hours live on stream – five full days. An entire business week, if you will.
Unless, of course, he manages to win an Online Super Series (OSS) XL event on ACR Poker. That's his only escape hatch. Throughout the five-day challenge, Pardy will host giveaways for viewers, face on-stream punishments, and provide opportunities for others to build their bankrolls.
"There are only two options," Pardy says in the video for the challenge. "Become a champion or go absolutely stir-crazy."
All it takes is one
Pardy's background in reality television, including a 75-day stint on Big Brother Canada, should help him stay sane as the cameras capture his every move.
And, as no slouch on felt, Pardy is far from drawing dead when it comes to punching his ticket out of the challenge. All it takes is one win, be it a tooth-and-nail battle to the last hand or a sun-run for the ages.
It also helps that the OSS XL has no shortage of events on its schedule – providing Pardy with plenty of opportunities to free himself from the marathon. Will he make it out before the 120 hours are up?
Follow along as Jon Pardy takes on a 120-hour streaming challenge on his Twitch channel.
