Norwegian Poker Challenge is Still On

Remember Norwegian poker pro Ola “Odd_Oddsen” Amundsgard's challenge to local politicians to prove that poker is a game of skill? He's back again with a reminder that the challenge is still on until May although he has clearly already won the batte with Norwegian Progress Party politician Erlen Wiborg. Amundgard said: "I would like to challenge all members of the Norwegian parliament to play a Heads-Up freeroll of 10,000 hands, where the prize money is one million Norwegian kroner, paid from my own pocket, should any of the politicians beat me.” “I make this offer to demonstrate that poker isn't merely a game of luck (which is the status of the game according to the current legislation in Norway), but a mind sport based on skill, like chess and bridge.” Those accepting the pro's challenge must participate in 10,000 hands of Pot Limit Omaha or play until they're knocked out plus play poker for 20 hours each month.
