BoylePoker.com pro Peter Murphy starts his Multiplier Challenge tomorrow where he will to turn a $100 bankroll into $10,000 at the online poker site in a time frame of just 11 weeks starting.
Head of poker at the site, Paul Spillane, said, “It’s every poker player’s dream really to think they can spin such a modest amount into a very healthy bankroll. What’s great about the game of poker is that it is can be done but will Peter have the discipline, skill and luck to do it? We’ll have to wait and see but I, for one, am looking forward to reading all about it and wish him the best of luck.”
Murphy joined the poker scene three years ago and since then has cashed more than €80,000 from live tournaments, including a seventh place at the Irish Poker Championship 2009, fifth at the Irish Winter Festival 2009, and fourth at the BoylePoker.com International Poker Open 2008.
The gutsy pro will begin the challenge by playing at micro limits under the name “murphymultiplier”, and will make his way upwards through the levels playing a variety of cash games and tournaments, in both hold’em and Omaha.
Poker enthusiasts will be able to follow murphymultiplier’s every move in his blog as he attempts to accomplish this difficult feat. Murphy said, “I’m really looking forward to it. I believe I am odds on to complete the challenge successfully but most people I’ve talked to think I am odds against — I’m sure I can prove them wrong and I plan to share this intense experience in all its glory at Boylepokerblog.com.”
