We grabbed a moment with a few players and had them give answer to a fake scenario.
"PokerStars have added €100,000 to the first place prize here at EPT Malta but there’s a catch: you have 24 hours to spend it from the moment you win. What’s your plan?"
Team PokerStars Pro Theo Jorgensen: I’m going to invite all my friends and have a monster party. I’ll get some really good music so I'll need to hire a band. I’m really hooked on a Canadian band called Bare Naked Ladies or an English band called the Beautiful South – so I’d hire them if I could afford them and get them here in time.
Marvin Rettenmaier: Wow! This is not easy. I don’t really need a car, I actually don’t really need anything and I’d feel bad wasting that much money on a party or something. I would get you something! Whatever you want but maybe not for the whole hundred thousand. Ah, I know! I’d get some poker lessons with Ike [Haxton], I’ve heard they’re $3,000/hour.
Mustapha Kanit: Oh wow! I’d probably buy a car if I have 24 hours and I have to spend it. I’m a lazy guy so it’s easy to spend it all on a car. The funny thing is I don’t even have a license!
Dan Smith: I don’t know what Ibiza is like at this time of year but I’d charter a jet or helicopter there, depending on what’s more feasible, and I think we’d all have a party!
Ludovic Geilich: I’d play dice at the closest table I could find. I’d also give half to charity. So, fifty thousand to charity and gamble the other half. I’d hope to have some profit at the end of the 24 hours and I’d share all that between friends and myself.
Sorel Mizzi: Three words – hookers and blow! No, 100k in 24hours? I would buy gold, obviously, and convert it into cash later. That’s the ultimate answer but if I couldn’t find gold, hookers and blow.
John O’Shea: I’d punt it on a bet and hope to spin it up. What ever is on next Saturday, it’d all go on that. It’d be a quick way to spend the money and get rid of it in 24 hours.
Antoly Filatov: I’m going to buy everything I can find here in Malta and then take it all back to Russia and sell it for twice the price. Then I’d have €200,000 and that’s a plan, all tax-free too!
